A homeowner in New Orleans contacted MK Electric Man to install a new chandelier in their foyer, aiming to elevate the space’s elegance and functionality.

The project required running new wiring through the attic to a light switch, installing a ceiling-rated electrical box to support the chandelier’s weight, and incorporating a dimmer switch for adjustable lighting.

The client needed a trusted electrician in New Orleans, LA, to execute a polished installation that blended seamlessly with their home’s decor while meeting safety standards.

Our team arrived promptly to assess the foyer and plan the installation, noting that the chandelier’s weight demanded a specialized ceiling box and that the dimmer switch required careful integration.

The challenge was to route wiring through the attic and drywall without compromising the home’s structure or appearance, while ensuring all components were code-compliant.

Our goal was to deliver a flawless light fixture installation that provided both beauty and practical control over the foyer’s lighting.

Our approach to this project involved careful planning and skilled execution to achieve a professional, finished result.

We began by running 12-2 Romex wiring through the attic, carefully navigating the space to route the cable from the power source to the foyer ceiling and down to the planned switch location.

This wiring, with its grounding conductor, ensured safe and reliable power delivery for the chandelier.

To support the chandelier’s weight, we installed a ceiling-rated breaker support electrical box, securely anchored to the ceiling joists to provide robust stability.

This specialized box was critical to safely holding the heavy fixture, preventing any risk of detachment over time.

We used wire nut connections to secure the wiring to the chandelier, ensuring reliable electrical contact and compliance with safety standards.

Next, we cut a precise hole in the drywall to install a switch box, which would house the new 120-volt dimmer switch.

The dimmer switch allowed the homeowner to adjust the foyer’s lighting intensity, creating versatile ambiance for different occasions.

We fished the Romex wiring from the attic down to the switch box, ensuring a clean installation without unnecessary damage to the drywall.

The switch box was mounted flush with the wall, providing a polished, finished look to the electrical service job.

After installing the chandelier, dimmer switch, and all wiring, we connected the circuit to the breaker panel, ensuring secure and proper connections.

We tested the chandelier and dimmer switch, confirming that the light fixture illuminated beautifully and responded smoothly to dimming adjustments.

The foyer was transformed, with the chandelier casting elegant light that enhanced the home’s aesthetic.

A final inspection verified that all connections were secure, the installation met New Orleans electrical codes, and the system was safe for long-term use.

The homeowner was delighted with the stunning result and the added functionality of the dimmer switch.
