Jun 18, 2025 | Commercial, Lighting

At Mario Castillo Electric, we believe that every project is an opportunity to transform a space and create lasting benefits for our clients. We recently had the pleasure of working with IAP West, INC, located at 20036 S Via Baron in Rancho Dominguez, California, and we’re excited to share the results of our latest commercial lighting project!

Lighting Up Savings

During this project the Mario Castillo Electric team successfully installed:

  • 14 high bay lights
  • 3 battery emergency high bay lights
  • 7 daylight sensors
  • 1 Inthermatic timer

The result was a brilliantly lit warehouse that enhances visibility and safety for IAP West, INC’s operations. The upgrade not only improves the work environment but also increases energy efficiency, and saves IAP West money on their electricity bills!

A Bright New Beginning: Step-by-Step Lighting Transformation by Mario Castillo Electric

At Mario Castillo Electric, precision and performance go hand-in-hand—and our recent warehouse lighting project was no exception.

Before

After

From Outdated to Outstanding:

Here's how we transformed the warehouse, step by step:

Step 1: Out with the Old

We began by removing the old lamp bulbs and outdated housing from the first row. This initial phase cleared the way for a modern, energy-efficient lighting system.

Step 2: Expert Fixture Installation

Our team then installed brand-new light fixtures, carefully spacing them for optimal coverage. This deliberate placement ensures balanced, uniform lighting that enhances both visibility and aesthetics across the warehouse.

Step 3: Flawless Wiring

Once the fixtures were in position, we shifted focus to the electrical work. Using MC cable and secure strapping, we connected each light with precision—building a safe and reliable foundation for long-term use.

Step 4: Power-On and Test

With wiring complete, we connected the power and conducted a full test to confirm that every light operated flawlessly. It’s always rewarding to see everything light up just as planned.

Step 5: Repeat and Refine

Following our successful first-row installation, we replicated the process for the second row. Consistency ensures cohesive lighting and long-term performance.

Step 6: Safety First

To guarantee safety and prevent electrical overload, we traced and confirmed amperage levels across the system. This final check is part of our commitment to responsible, high-quality work.

Step 7: Smart Energy Management

To round out the project, we installed and programmed a timer for the north side lighting—ensuring the system runs only when needed. We even set up three additional timers to allow for future adjustments, maximizing energy savings and efficiency.
