Project overview

Our Raleigh branch completed an electrical troubleshooting and LED lighting repair for YMCA of the Triangle in Durham, NC. On June 18, 2024, technician Cody Perry diagnosed non‑working overhead lights, used a rental lift for safe access, and restored dependable illumination with high‑efficiency LED replacements.

This service call focused on identifying the exact cause of lighting failures, ensuring safe access to elevated fixtures, and delivering a long‑term fix that improves reliability and reduces maintenance.

What we found and fixed

Several lights were not operating as expected. To determine the root cause, Cody performed a comprehensive diagnostic on each affected fixture. The lighting was mounted at height, so a lift was brought in to reach and test components thoroughly.

After isolating the issue, we installed two LED direct‑wire bulbs to bring the area back to full, consistent brightness. Direct‑wire LEDs provide dependable performance and energy savings, helping reduce future downtime and improving overall lighting quality.
