Trusted Local Electricians Serving Oviedo, FL
At Spectrum Electric Inc., our mission is to provide Oviedo homeowners with electrical work grounded in uncompromising safety and long-term accountability. We don't offer quick fixes; we deliver meticulously planned solutions designed to protect your family and property for decades. Every installation, from a simple outlet to a full panel upgrade, is backed by our 7-year coverage policy, reflecting our deep confidence in our craftsmanship.
Whether you're restoring a classic home in historic downtown Oviedo or modernizing a newer build off Mitchell Hammock Road, we understand the specific electrical challenges of your property. Our team has firsthand experience with the hazardous aluminum branch circuits common in 1970s homes and the ungrounded wiring of older properties. Because we are your neighbors, with headquarters in nearby Casselberry, our pride is built on making our own community safer, one home at a time.
Electrical Services for Oviedo Homes
Our team sees it as our professional obligation to educate you on the "why" behind our work. When we manage the permitting process through Seminole County, it’s to ensure every connection meets the strict Florida Building Code for your family's protection. Before any work begins, we provide upfront, fixed pricing, so you have complete clarity and control from the start.
We are experts in fortifying your home against the unique electrical stresses of Central Florida. The immense power demand from an air conditioner, pool pump, and EV charger running simultaneously, combined with the constant threat of lightning strikes, requires more than standard solutions. We engineer robust systems built not just for your current needs, but for decades of safe operation under punishing Florida conditions.
Panel Upgrades for Older Homes
The strain of a Central Florida summer can push an older electrical panel past its limits, creating a serious fire risk. We specialize in upgrading undersized 100-amp panels to modern 200-amp systems capable of safely managing the continuous load from high-efficiency HVAC units. As part of our service, we perform a complimentary thermal inspection to identify dangerous heat buildup at breakers and connections before they fail.
Whole House Rewiring
Many older Oviedo homes contain hazardous wiring that demands expert attention. We identify the specific dangers of aluminum branch circuits, whose connections loosen over time and cause arcing, along with pre-1940s knob-and-tube and its brittle, unsafe insulation. Our whole house rewiring services are performed with meticulous care to bring your home up to modern safety codes while minimizing disruption to your life.
EV Charger Installation
Installing an EV charger is more than just hanging a box on the wall; it requires a professional load calculation to ensure your home's electrical service can handle the continuous 32-50 amp draw. Our methodical process may include upgrading your service to 200A and always involves a dedicated 240V, 50-amp circuit using heavy-duty 6-gauge wire. We perform every installation by the book so you can charge your vehicle with total peace of mind.
Lighting Design and Installation
Thoughtful lighting design and installation enhances your home's beauty and safety. We educate you on how color temperature affects a room's atmosphere and, for outdoor areas, we insist on properly sealed UL wet-rated fixtures. This crucial step prevents moisture intrusion from our humid Florida air, ensuring your patio and landscape lighting remains safe and functional for years to come.
Ceiling Fan Installation
A new ceiling fan can significantly lower your cooling costs, but only if installed with uncompromising safety. We anchor every ceiling fan installation to a heavy-duty, fan-rated electrical box, as required by code. We refuse to cut corners by using a standard plastic light box, a common but dangerous shortcut that puts your family at risk from a falling fixture.
Electrical Safety Inspections
While we conduct formal 4-point inspections for insurance purposes, our commitment to your safety goes further. Every service call we make includes a complimentary walkthrough with a thermal imaging camera. This allows us to spot hidden electrical hazards, like overheating connections behind your walls, giving you the critical information needed to protect your home from fire and equipment damage from Florida’s frequent lightning storms.
Outdoor and Pool Electrical
Your pool should be a place of relaxation, not risk. We adhere strictly to NEC Article 680, installing layers of protection that unlicensed installers often skip. This includes creating an equipotential bond with an 8-gauge solid copper wire to connect all metal components, preventing the voltage gradients that cause Electric Shock Drowning. We also ensure every required circuit and outlet is protected by GFCI technology for your family's absolute safety.
Why Oviedo Homeowners Choose Spectrum Electric
Our status as an ABC Accredited Quality Contractor is a direct reflection of our core values: craftsmanship, safety, and accountability. We don't just follow the National Electrical Code; we master it to ensure your project is built to last. This commitment is paired with our policy of providing upfront, fixed pricing, so you can move forward with confidence and without the worry of hidden costs or surprises.
Fast response times to Oviedo
From our Casselberry headquarters, we can respond to emergencies in Oviedo quickly. Our trucks are fully stocked because we operate on a "no callback" culture; our goal is to diagnose the root cause and perform the correct, lasting repair on the first visit, respecting your time and ensuring the safety of your home.
Specific experience with Oviedo homes
In Central Florida, a lightning strike a quarter-mile away can destroy every sensitive electronic device in your home. We protect Oviedo families with a layered approach, starting with professional whole-home generator installations. For surges, we install a robust Type 2 SPD at your panel to stop the primary voltage spike, providing far greater whole-house surge protection than inadequate plug-in strips.
Licensed and fully insured
As a Florida State Certified Electrical Contractor (#EC13008455), we take on full accountability for your project. By managing the entire permitting and inspection process, we ensure your electrical system is not only safe and code-compliant but also properly documented, protecting your family, your home's value, and eliminating future liability issues.
250+ years of combined team experience
Our experienced technicians are methodical problem-solvers. We don't guess; we diagnose. Using advanced tools like thermal imaging cameras, we can see heat and resistance at connection points, the root cause of many failures. This allows us to address the core issue with precision, rather than simply treating a symptom that is bound to return.
Respectful of Your Property
Because we live in the same Central Florida communities we serve, we treat your home with personal respect and pride. Our crews protect your property with shoe covers and drop cloths not just because it's policy, but because these are our neighbors' homes. We measure success by the quality of our craftsmanship and the trust we build, not the volume of calls we run.

Customer Reviews
What Our Central Florida Customers Say
Spectrum was great. I called several companies for a quote to run electric from the house to backyard shed. Spectrum was one of the only ones who called me back and came our right away and gave me a quote. I felt like the wanted my business. We scheduled the work for a few days later both Alex and Jason showed up on time and were done when they said they would be. Very thorough, professional, made sure they did everything we needed, took time to answer any questions we had. I would definitely use them again and recommend them. Great company and great people.
FANATASTIC experience with Spectrum. The electrician was very efficient and thorough with the job. We got a new light fixture in our pantry and Alex walked us through all our options. When he was done with the installation, he troubleshooted it to make sure it was working exactly the way we wanted it. Before he left, he cleaned the area he was working in. I highly recommend this company! Extremely professional, knowledgeable, and affordable!
A great experience with Spectrum Electric. Alex came out in person and estimated the work to be performed (rewire entire house). Besides being affordable, they've been very professional, and strong communication with us every step of the way. I would recommend them for any project large or small.
Spectrum has been out to our home three times now and has done incredibly work each time. They are prompt, professional and efficient. I first used them to update all recommendations from our home purchase inspection. They were able to test/update/replace every single outlet. This helped address a recent short we experienced in my sons room. Now I know we are up to code and my baby is safe! Most recently, I needed a new outlet out put in. They were busy but still made time to squeeze us in and now my freezer works! I will surely use them for all of my electrical needs.
I couldn't have been more pleased with the outcome of the services performed by Spectrum Electric! They were amazing with explaining everything to me, repairing what needed to be done and making my kitchen light up! They were quick, on time, clean and were reasonably priced. I will definitely use them in the future and highly recommend.
