What we installed in this Raleigh home
- Four wafer can lights added in the guest room for bright, even illumination. Low‑profile wafer LEDs fit tight ceiling cavities and deliver long‑lasting, energy‑efficient light.
- Customer‑supplied fixtures installed in the closet and laundry closet on existing circuits, providing clean, finished lighting where it’s needed most.
- New dimmer switch installed for smooth, compatible dimming and better ambiance with modern LED fixtures.
- New TV outlet added to power media equipment neatly at the wall.
- Keyless light in the crawl space replaced for reliable, convenient access lighting.
To support the new lighting, we ran approximately 60 feet of NM‑B 14/2 cable as needed for 15‑amp lighting and general‑purpose circuits, with properly mounted junction boxes and secure terminations.
Dedicated dryer circuit and appliance connection
We installed a dedicated dryer circuit with a 4‑prong receptacle to meet modern grounding requirements and improve safety and performance. The customer’s dryer was connected on its own circuit, reducing nuisance trips and ensuring the appliance receives the correct power supply.
Attic fans wired for reliable ventilation
Our electricians wired new attic fans, ensuring solid connections, proper junction boxes, and clean routing for dependable operation. Professionally wired attic fans help improve ventilation and can support better attic temperatures during Raleigh’s warm seasons.
Troubleshooting dimming and flickering lights
We troubleshot dimming lights on the back porch and over the garage, then corrected the issues so the fixtures operate consistently. This included installing the correct dimmer and addressing any wiring factors impacting performance. With the right controls and wiring practices, exterior and garage lighting can run smoothly without flicker or drop‑outs.
Electrical safety corrections
- Rewired an outlet with hot/neutral reversed to restore safe, proper polarity—an important fix for shock protection and device reliability.
- Installed cover plates on open junction boxes (including in the crawl space) to enclose live wiring, improve safety, and align with code requirements.
These attention‑to‑detail items are just as critical as the bigger upgrades—safeguarding the home while preventing future issues.
