Spa Light Replacement & Pool Transformer Service in Charlotte, NC

Touchstone Electric’s Charlotte team completed a safe, code-compliant spa light replacement and pool transformer service for homeowner Larry Jeffares in Charlotte, NC. Performed by technician Chris Rogers from our Matthews branch, this Specialty Pool & Hot Tub Electrical project was completed on September 1, 2026 and focused on restoring dependable, low-voltage lighting for the customer’s spa.

Project Overview

Our scope centered on replacing a spa light and installing a customer-supplied transformer to safely step down power for low-voltage pool and spa lighting. We also provided essential wiring upgrades to keep the equipment safe and compliant with pool and hot tub electrical standards.

Replaced the spa light assembly using the customer’s fixture and whip.
Installed the customer-supplied pool/spa transformer to power low-voltage lighting loads.
Provided and pulled a new THHN ground conductor through the existing conduit path from the light whip to the equipment area.
Completed neat connections with car flex and wire for a durable, weather-resistant equipment-side hookup.
Verified correct operation and proper low-voltage output for safe illumination.

Safety-First, Code-Compliant Pool & Spa Electrical

Pool and spa lighting must be installed with careful attention to electrical safety. Our team follows NEC Article 680 best practices as well as local requirements in Charlotte to help ensure the system is protected in wet and corrosive environments. For this project, we focused on:

Low-voltage isolation: Installing and terminating the customer’s transformer to step down voltage for lighting loads.
Proper conductors: Supplying and pulling a THHN ground conductor through the conduit to support safe operation and grounding continuity.
Durable raceways: Using car flex where appropriate to protect conductors at the equipment pad and maintain a clean, serviceable layout.
Clean terminations: Tight, corrosion-conscious connections suitable for pool equipment areas.

The result is a reliable spa light that’s ready for regular use, with wiring practices that support long-term safety and serviceability.
