Project overview: Floor Outlets & Dedicated 20A Plug in Mars Hill, NC
Our Greenville team, based in Taylors, completed a clean, efficient outlet installation for Steve Wilcox in Mars Hill, NC. On August 1, 2024, technician Tyler Harris added two specialty floor outlets and a surface-mounted dedicated 20A plug to power a tankless unit in the crawl space. To support the load safely, we installed a new 20A breaker and routed NM-B 12/2 wiring to the new locations.
What we installed
- Two specialty floor receptacles with durable covers for convenient power access without wall clutter.
- One surface-mounted dedicated 20A receptacle serving the tankless unit in the crawl space.
- New 20A breaker in the electrical panel to provide overcurrent protection and a dedicated path for the tankless circuit.
- Approximately 25 feet of NM-B 12/2 Romex to deliver reliable power for high-current needs with neat routing and secure terminations.
This combination ensures the tankless unit receives the uninterrupted power it requires while giving the living area flexible floor-level access to electricity.
Why this upgrade makes a difference
- Dedicated power for performance: Tankless systems benefit from a dedicated 20A circuit that reduces nuisance tripping and supports proper operation.
- Convenience where you need it: Floor outlets help eliminate cord stretch and wall clutter, making furniture placement easier and safer.
- Safety-first installation: A matched 20A breaker with 12/2 wiring provides the correct protection and capacity for the load.
- Clean, future-ready layout: Clearly labeled circuits and tidy routing make any future service straightforward.
How we approached the job in Mars Hill
Before any wiring was run, Tyler confirmed outlet locations with the homeowner to balance accessibility and aesthetics. We then planned the pathway for the new circuit, routed the 12/2 NM-B to each point, and securely mounted the floor boxes and the surface-mounted plug in the crawl space. After installing the new 20A breaker, we made final terminations, verified polarity and voltage, and labeled the panel for easy identification.
The result is a neat, dependable installation that supports the tankless unit and delivers convenient floor-level power where it’s most useful.
