Completed Light Switch Installation in Wingate, NC
Our Outlets & Switches team completed a clean, code-compliant light switch installation at the crawl space door for a home in Wingate, NC. On December 15, 2025, technician Tyquan Johnson arrived from our Matthews branch (Charlotte business unit) to add a convenient switch right at the point of entry, making crawl space access safer and far easier for routine inspections and maintenance.
What We Did
The homeowner already had work completed inside the crawl space and needed a dedicated switch at the door. We assessed the existing lighting, verified circuit capacity, and installed a properly mounted switch in a secure electrical box at the crawl space entrance. All wiring connections were made to current standards, with properly supported cable runs and tight, labeled terminations for long-term reliability.
Before leaving, Tyquan tested the operation from entry and inside the space, confirmed appropriate illumination, and performed a final safety check. The work area was cleaned and the new switch clearly identified so future service and use are straightforward for the homeowner.
Code-Compliant and Safe
Crawl spaces require thoughtful electrical design due to limited clearance, moisture concerns, and visibility needs. Our installation follows current electrical code requirements for crawl space lighting, including a conveniently located switch at the usual point of entry. By placing the control where you first access the space, you reduce tripping hazards, improve visibility, and make maintenance safer for anyone entering the area.
Touchstone Electric uses quality hardware, secure enclosures, and sound wiring practices on every project. The result is a dependable switch and lighting setup that’s built to serve for years.

- Convenience: No need to reach deep inside to find a pull chain or remote switch.
- Fewer hazards: Better visibility helps you avoid pipes, wiring, and low-clearance areas.
