Living in Orlando means running the AC constantly and dealing with frequent thunderstorms. Your electrical system is the heartbeat of your home, and if you live in one of the many beautiful 1960s or 70s ranch-style homes in neighborhoods like Conway or College Park, your wiring might not be keeping up. Spectrum Electric (License #EC13008455) has served Central Florida for over 25 years. Whether you need to replace a loose outlet or modernize your lighting with smart switches, we get the job done right.
These outlets have the "Test" and "Reset" buttons in the middle. They monitor the flow of electricity and cut the power instantly if they detect a variance, such as electricity flowing through water or a person. In Florida, these are your first line of defense against electrocution.
These receptacles combine standard three-prong plugs with built-in USB-A or USB-C ports. You can eliminate the clutter of bulky adapters and free up standard outlets for lamps or vacuums. Perfect for kitchen islands, nightstands, and home offices.
Heavy-duty outlets housed in a protective cover that seals out moisture, rain, and debris. Whether you're powering a pool pump in Winter Garden or string lights on a patio in Lake Nona, weatherproof outlets prevent shorts and corrosion.
These outlets feature internal shutters that prevent foreign objects from being inserted into the slots. Essential if you have young children or grandchildren visiting.
Current Florida electrical code is strict about where GFCI protection is required. You must have GFCI protection in:
We use low-voltage LED fixtures to highlight your favorite Any outlet serving countertop surfaces.
All outlets, regardless of distance from the tub or sink.
All outlets, to protect against shocks while using power tools.
All exterior outlets.
Outlets within six feet of the sink or washing machine.
Within six feet of the sink.
Installing a dimmer gives you total control over the mood of your room, but the benefits go beyond aesthetics. Dimming your lights can reduce energy use by up to 40% and significantly extend the lifespan of your light bulbs.
We install top brands like Lutron, Leviton, and C by GE. These allow you to control your lights via voice commands with Alexa or Google Home, or set schedules so your porch lights turn on automatically when the sun sets over Orlando.
Ignoring a faulty outlet is dangerous. According to the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA), electrical issues are a leading cause of home fires. Call us immediately if you notice:s:
An outlet should never feel hot to the touch.
If you see a blue or orange spark every time you plug an appliance in, the contacts inside are likely worn out.
Electricity should be silent. A buzzing noise suggests loose wiring.
If a plug won't stay firmly in the outlet, the internal grips are worn, which can lead to arcing.
