Remodel Outlet, Switch & Lighting Installation in Charlotte, NC
Touchstone Electric’s Charlotte branch completed a detailed outlets and switches project for Re-Bath Charlotte during a reception-area remodel with two newly built rooms. Completed on November 18, 2024, our licensed technician, Patrick Burke, delivered a clean, code-compliant installation that expands power access, improves lighting, and prepares the space for future technology needs.

Scope of Work Completed
- Installed three new 2‑gang outlets in the reception area for convenient power access.
- Relocated a two‑gang switch and one outlet to fit the new floor plan; installed a junction box as required.
- Added two whips to make future outlets faster to install during the next phase.
- Ran three dedicated Ethernet/data drops to the reception desk for stable network connectivity.
- Removed six blanked device boxes no longer needed after the remodel.
- Added nine new receptacles across two newly built rooms to support added equipment.
- Set a low-profile wafer can light in one room for efficient overhead illumination.
- Installed the switch and wiring needed for a future flush-mount ceiling fixture in the second room.
- Added a dedicated 20A circuit to handle the new outlet load safely and reliably.
Materials, Methods & Quality
- EMT conduit (1/2") with fittings and supports to protect conductors and keep runs organized.
- THHN #12 conductors sized for 20‑amp branch circuits powering general-use receptacles.
- MC cable and metal device boxes for durable, secure terminations in the remodeled spaces.
- Low‑voltage 22/4 cabling and dedicated data drops to support connectivity and low‑voltage needs in reception.
- Standard 20A breaker to complete the new circuit and balance panel load.
- Diagnostic and verification to test polarity, grounding, continuity, GFCI/AFCI where applicable, and lighting function.
We follow current electrical code and best practices for conductor sizing, device placement, and protection. All new outlets and switches were mounted to proper box fill, secured with correct fittings, and labeled for ease of use and future service.
