Project details
Date completed: September 20, 2024
Technician: Viktor Opalko
Location: Waxhaw, NC
Customer: Jamie Young
This service visit addressed a “Switch and outlet” request and focused on safety and everyday usability for a frequently used circuit location.
Scope of work performed
- Standard light switch install/replacement: Set up for common 2-way, 3-way, or 4-way configurations (install/replacement only for a light or fixture). No new wire or circuit was included in this line item.
- GFCI receptacle installation: Installed a new GFCI outlet with a matching cover to deliver ground-fault protection where it’s needed for enhanced safety. Scope did not include conduit or adding a new circuit.
- 30 ft of 14/2 NM-B (Romex) wiring: Routed and secured wiring for a 15-amp general-purpose or lighting application. This included the cost of any necessary junction box for the connection path. A new breaker or added circuit was not part of this scope.
All work was performed with careful attention to device placement, secure terminations, and neat finishes to support code-compliant operation and long-term reliability.
Why this upgrade matters
- Safety with GFCI protection: A GFCI outlet monitors for ground faults and quickly interrupts power to help reduce the risk of electric shock in areas where protection is recommended or required by code.
- Dependable switching: A properly installed switch provides consistent control of lights or fixtures and smooth daily operation.
- Right-sized wiring: 14/2 NM-B on a 15-amp application supports safe performance and clear future serviceability.
By combining a new GFCI receptacle, a fresh switch, and correctly sized wiring, this Waxhaw project delivered a simple, effective improvement to everyday function and safety.
