Summary

A homeowner in Los Angeles needed new exterior lighting for their gate and pillars, along with power for a gate motor and an EV charger. This project required careful planning to run new circuits and ensure everything was protected and up to code.

The Work

Installed two separate 120v circuits to the front of the home: one for the gate motor and one for lighting on pillars
Set up junction boxes in the crawl space and on the side of the home with a photocell for lighting control
Ran conduit and wiring through the crawl space, along the exterior, and into masonry pillars for weather resistance
Supplied and installed all necessary conduit, wiring, junction and masonry boxes, and breakers
Prepared infrastructure for an EV charger at a new location

The Outcome

The property now has reliable power for the gate motor, automatic lighting on the pillars, and a ready-to-use EV charger connection. All components are protected and neatly integrated into the existing space, making the outdoor area safer and more functional.
