On September 13, 2024, Touchstone Electric completed a clean, code‑minded garage outlet installation for homeowner Austin Parker in Weaverville, NC. Technician Tyler Harris tied the new receptacle into existing power and routed the wiring neatly to deliver a durable, safe, and convenient 120‑volt connection where it was needed most.
This project was handled by our Hendersonville branch, supported by our Greenville business unit, ensuring quick scheduling and careful workmanship from a local team that knows current electrical standards.
What We Installed
- 12/2 NM‑B cable (15 ft): Proper 12‑gauge copper conductors for a 20‑amp branch circuit, routed with attention to protection and support.
- 3/4" PVC conduit (12 ft): Secure, tidy protection for exposed sections in the garage with appropriate connectors, straps, and fittings.
- Standard duplex receptacle: Installed with a matching cover for a clean finish and easy everyday use.
The new outlet was tied into an existing circuit after verifying compatibility, then terminated with correct strip lengths and torque, and labeled for clarity.
Safe, Code‑Conscious Methods
Garages demand practical durability and careful electrical protection. We used 12‑gauge conductors appropriate for a 20‑amp branch and PVC conduit to shield exposed runs, secured at proper intervals. Connections were made in an approved box with strain relief, bonding, and ample working space.
- Verified grounding path and continuity
- Checked polarity and voltage at the receptacle
- Inspected box fill, conductor support, and connector integrity
- Performed functional testing under load to confirm performance
The result is a neat installation that aligns with modern standards for protection, routing, and accessibility—built to serve tools, yard equipment, and typical garage loads reliably.
