Touchstone Electric’s Matthews branch completed a dedicated 15-amp refrigerator circuit and standard outlet installation for GJK Remodeling, LLC in Waxhaw, NC.

If you need dependable outlet installation or repair, our Outlets & Switches team serves homeowners and remodelers throughout Waxhaw with clean workmanship and reliable results.
What We Installed
To provide a dedicated supply that minimizes nuisance trips and supports consistent refrigerator performance, we installed:
- Dedicated 15A branch circuit routed from the electrical panel to the refrigerator location
- NM-B 14/2 cable (approx. 40 ft) secured and protected according to code
- 15-amp breaker hardware as part of the panel configuration
- Standard refrigerator receptacle with a new cover plate, tested and labeled
This combination ensures the refrigerator has its own properly sized circuit, helping reduce the risk of tripped breakers caused by shared loads and supporting long-term appliance health.
Why a Dedicated Refrigerator Circuit Matters
- Fewer interruptions: Keeps the fridge on a separate line so countertop appliances and lighting don’t cause breaker trips.
- Stable performance: Helps maintain consistent voltage for compressors and electronics inside modern refrigerators.
- Code-aligned approach: Installed to current standards and best practices for safe kitchen power distribution.
- Protects your investment: Reduces stress on critical components to support longevity and reliable cooling.
How We Delivered a Clean, Code-Compliant Install
- Assessment: Verified panel capacity and identified the best routing path to the kitchen location.
- Cable run: Pulled and secured NM-B 14/2 with proper staples, support, and clearances.
- Panel work: Installed 15-amp breaker hardware and labeled the new circuit for easy identification.
- Outlet setup: Set a standard receptacle at the refrigerator location with correct polarity and grounding.
- Testing: Checked connections, breaker function, and receptacle readings to confirm safe operation.
- Cleanup: Left the workspace tidy and ready for immediate use.
