Manders Maintenance Office Addition Electrical in Plano, TX

Manders Maintenance, a commercial construction company in Plano, Texas, added an upstairs office addition to its building and brought in Koryente to wire it and update the lighting in its existing offices. The work was completed in July 2023.

In the existing cubicle office area and the owner's office, the crew removed the old 2x4 fluorescent fixtures, set the new ceiling tiles the client provided, and installed 27 LED 2x2 flat-panel lay-in lights on the existing switches: 20 in the cubicle area and 7 in the owner's office. Each of the two existing restrooms also got an LED flat panel tied into its exhaust fan and light combination.

For the addition, Koryente installed a 200-amp, three-phase subpanel fed from the main panel, with dedicated circuits for the cubicles, the printer, the kitchenette, lighting, and general receptacles, plus a 240-volt circuit, disconnect, and whip for the mini-split.

Upstairs, the crew wired 14 six-inch recessed lights with selectable-color LED trims on a single switch, 8-foot LED strip lights in the attic storage areas on each side of the addition, wall-mounted TV receptacles at four cubicle locations, and three convenience receptacles in the hallway. The new restroom got an exhaust fan, a recessed light, a three-light vanity fixture, and a GFCI receptacle at the vanity.

Koryente also ran seven data drops, one for each of six cubicles and one for the printer, then terminated, tested, and labeled each one and connected them at the patch panel in the data closet.
