Project overview in New Hill, NC
Touchstone Electric’s Raleigh team completed an outlet installation and ceiling fan wiring project for HardRock Consulting in New Hill, NC on August 15, 2024. The scope included adding a code-compliant closet outlet, wiring a ceiling fan on an existing circuit, installing two can-light switches, and running new NM-B Romex 14/2 cable with an electrical permit filed with the county.
Following completion, the customer praised our team in their review for delivering a clean, professional installation and clear communication throughout the process.
What we installed
- 12 standard receptacles: Installed new outlets with covers for general-purpose use. Placement followed best practices for accessibility and everyday convenience.
- Closet outlet added per code: A dedicated receptacle was added in the closet to meet current electrical code and improve utility.
- Ceiling fan fixture: Installed a customer-supplied fan/light on an existing box and circuit. Work included verifying secure support and proper connections for safe operation.
- Two can-light switches: New switch controls were installed for existing recessed lighting (can lights), offering better room lighting control.
- 100 ft of NM-B Romex 14/2: Routed and secured 14/2 cable for 15-amp lighting and general-purpose circuits. The run included any needed junction box components to maintain safe, tidy wiring transitions.
- Electrical permit: Our Raleigh branch obtained and filed the county electrical permit for this project to document compliance and support any required inspections.
As part of the installation, our technician ensured outlet and switch placement, wiring methods, and device terminations aligned with current safety standards and local requirements in New Hill, NC.
Code compliance and permitting
Staying compliant with the electrical code protects your home and ensures new devices operate safely. For this project, we:
- Installed the closet outlet per code and verified proper clearances and wiring methods.
- Mounted the customer-supplied ceiling fan to an existing, properly supported box and tied it into the existing circuit as requested.
- Used NM-B 14/2 Romex on 15-amp lighting/general-purpose circuits with secure stapling, routing, and junctioning.
- Filed the electrical permit with the county, coordinating work to be inspection-ready.
Note: The permit obtained for this job was an electrical permit. Other jurisdictional permits (such as zoning or historic) vary by project and are not included unless specified.
