Grounded Outlet Installation in Greensboro, NC
Touchstone Electric’s Raleigh branch completed a grounded outlet installation for homeowner Steve Hase in Greensboro, NC. Led by technician Brad Williams, our team added four new grounded receptacles and tied them into existing grounded circuits located in the crawl space. The work was carefully planned to blend with the home’s finish while maintaining safe, code-conscious wiring practices.
Date completed: December 11, 2024
Project Highlights
- Service categories: Outlets & Switches; Outlet Installation & Repair
- Location: Greensboro, NC (serviced by our Raleigh branch)
- Scope: Install new grounded outlets and integrate with existing grounded circuits
What We Installed
- 4x Standard Grounded Receptacles: New outlets with covers, placed in designated areas for everyday use.
- 50 ft NM-B Romex 14/2 (15‑amp): Residential-grade cable suitable for general-purpose outlet circuits, with required junctions included as needed for a clean, reliable connection.
- 20 ft Wire Fishing: Professional wire fishing through finished areas to minimize wall disruption and preserve the home’s appearance.
- Tie‑in at Crawl Space: Connections made to existing grounded circuits in the crawl space to maintain proper grounding continuity.
How We Completed the Wiring
After confirming the presence of properly grounded circuits, we routed NM-B 14/2 cable from the crawl space to each new outlet location. Our technician used specialized fishing techniques to navigate tight spaces and finished surfaces with minimal impact. All terminations were made with secure connections and flush-mounted covers for a neat, finished look that aligns with local electrical standards.
This approach preserved the home’s aesthetics while delivering safe, reliable power where it’s needed. Final checks included polarity, grounding continuity, and function testing at each receptacle.
