Documented field work
Installation details and completed work
The need
The recorded work involved lighting disconnections in an elevator lobby. One pot light was to be disconnected and removed, and three fluorescent fixtures identified by the on-site team also needed to be taken down. The available record does not state that a panel upgrade was completed or identify the reason for the wider electrical work.
PTX's approach
The building manager shut off the breaker for the lights before the work proceeded. PTX removed the pot light, installed a pigtail light with a 60W 2700K bulb, and disconnected and removed the three fluorescent fixtures. The wires were capped with marrettes and electrical tape. The removed fixtures were placed in the maintenance office in the parkade. The record also notes that the fixtures were in good condition and did not need to be replaced.
The recorded result
The documented result was one pot light disconnected and removed, one pigtail light installed, and three fluorescent fixtures disconnected and removed. The removed fixtures were stored in the maintenance office in the parkade. This record does not confirm a panel upgrade, permit outcome, code compliance finding or any broader building result.
What this job helps another property owner consider
When electrical work affects shared or building lighting, planning should include who will shut off the relevant breaker, which fixtures are actually in scope, how exposed wires will be handled, and where removed equipment will be stored. This Vancouver example records those practical coordination details without treating lighting disconnections as a panel upgrade or as a diagnosis of another property.
