Code Corrections and Inspection Repairs in Charlotte, NC
Touchstone Electric’s Charlotte team (Matthews branch) completed a set of electrical repairs and code corrections for Walsh Crawl Space & Structural Repair in Charlotte, NC. The project focused on resolving failed inspection notes and preparing the home for final approval. Technicians Ben Lively and Theo Coetsee led the service, completing the work on August 19, 2025.
Our goal was to address safety, labeling, and protection requirements so the installation meets current code and passes local inspection. Below is a concise overview of the solutions we provided.
Repairs and Corrections We Completed
- Attic equipment labeling: Labeled the attic unit clearly to match panel schedules and meet identification requirements.
- GFCI protection in the garage: Added appropriate GFCI protection for garage receptacles to satisfy NEC and local code.
- Sewer alarm circuit labeling: Labeled the sewer lift/alarm circuit in the electrical panel for clear identification during service and inspection.
- Detector wiring corrections: Corrected hardwired life-safety detector wiring where required, including devices serving the second-floor bedroom and adjacent hallway, to comply with interconnected and hardwire requirements.
- Subpanel verification: Verified new subpanels serving HVAC and mini-split equipment at the rear and right-side elevations, confirming correct terminations, bonding/grounding practices, and labeling.
- Open junction box addressed: Resolved the open junction box associated with an attic canless light to ensure a covered, code-compliant enclosure.
- Alarm enclosure secured: Ensured the alarm box closes properly so the equipment remains protected and serviceable.
- Heat strip breaker identification: Confirmed breaker labeling for heat strips on the garage unit, noting the builder’s direction that heat strips are not being installed.
We also reviewed the broader inspection notes for the addition and garage areas, documenting items designated for final checks (such as kitchen oven wiring and island circuits) so they are ready to be verified at the next inspection milestone.
