Turning Constant Power Into Switched Outlets | Shop Electrical Upgrade

In this vlog, we’re back at Sean’s shop completing a small but highly functional electrical upgrade. The client requested: • Converting a constant-power outlet into a switched outlet • Adding switch control to an air compressor outlet • Installing a new outlet on a finished wall with minimal drywall damage This project may look simple — but clean execution, proper wiring configuration, and code compliance matter. ⸻ What We Covered in This Video: • Intercepting and reconfiguring wiring for a switched outlet • Running conduit to control a compressor from a wall switch • Adding a new outlet where no box previously existed • Using proper NM connector for Romex into metal box • Clean surface-mounted box installation • Securing conduit with proper straps • Testing with a plug tester for correct wiring • Verifying switched control functionality This upgrade now allows: ✔️ Easy control of the air compressor ✔️ No more constantly powered equipment ✔️ Cleaner cable management ✔️ Added convenience and safety Sometimes it’s the small upgrades that make the biggest difference in a workspace. ⸻ 📞 Contact Smiley Electric For commercial or residential electrical work, inspections, upgrades, or collaborations: 📞 503-484-7556 ✉️ help@smileyelectric.net 📄 CCB# 227116 👍 Like the video, subscribe, and turn on notifications for more real-world electrical projects. #codecompliance #commerciallighting #electricalcontractor #commercialelectrician #electricalrepair #electricianlife #electricalwork #electricalapprentice #oregonelectrician #smileyelectric
