Clean TV Outlet Installation in Greenville, SC
On April 11, 2025, Touchstone Electric completed a neat, code-compliant outlet addition for a wall-mounted TV in Greenville, SC. Our licensed technician Wyatt Barnes extended power from an existing circuit to place a new receptacle exactly where it was needed—behind the TV—so cords stay hidden and the space looks uncluttered.
This project was handled by our Greenville team serving the area from our branch in Taylors. Homeowner Erlene Nolley chose us for a straightforward, tidy installation that matched the home’s existing finishes.
What We Did
We added a standard duplex outlet on the opposite side of an interior wall by safely extending an existing general-purpose circuit. Using professional methods and materials, we ensured the new receptacle is secure, properly wired, and ready for everyday TV use.
- Installed: 1 standard receptacle with cover, flush-mounted for a clean finish behind the TV.
- Wiring: Extended the existing branch circuit using NM-B 14/2 cable, which is commonly used on 15-amp general-purpose circuits.
- Cable length: Approximately 2 feet of NM-B 14/2 was added to reach the new outlet location.
- Scope clarity: No new breaker or conduit was required for this job.

Safety and Code Compliance
Every installation we perform follows the National Electrical Code (NEC) and applicable local requirements. For this outlet addition, we used properly rated wiring, secured all terminations, and set the device in an approved box with the correct cover. Standard checks were performed to verify continuity, grounding, and correct hot/neutral orientation before returning the circuit to service.
The result is a reliable receptacle located exactly where the TV needs power—no dangling extension cords and no guesswork about load or wiring integrity.
Why Add a TV Outlet Behind the Screen?
- Cleaner look: Hide power cords for a minimalist, wall-mounted TV setup.
- Convenience: Dedicated plug location for TV and streaming devices.
- Better safety: Reduce reliance on power strips and long extension cords.
- Future-ready: Easy access for soundbars, media players, and smart hubs.
