Electrical Contractor Orlando FL | Call Carney Electric

Our Orlando electrical inspections specifically check for signs of moisture intrusion, which is common here due to humidity and afternoon storms. We examine panel seals, conduit entries, and the overall enclosure for corrosion or rust. Identifying these issues early allows us to reseal the panel, recommend protective covers, or relocate components to a drier area, preventing short circuits, breaker failures, and potential fire hazards before they start.

Given our area's high lightning activity, a proper inspection goes beyond the basic wiring. Our electricians evaluate your home's entire surge protection strategy. We check if your main electrical panel has a whole-house surge protector installed, inspect the grounding and bonding systems for integrity, and assess individual outlets protecting sensitive electronics. We can then recommend and install the right level of protection, from whole-house devices to point-of-use protectors, tailored to your home's needs.

If you've experienced a nearby lightning strike or heavy flooding, watch for specific warning signs. These include tripped breakers that won't reset, outlets or switches that feel warm, a burning smell near the panel, flickering lights, or appliances and electronics that suddenly stop working. These can indicate surge damage or water intrusion. We recommend a prompt safety inspection to identify hidden damage, prevent further issues, and ensure your home's electrical system is safe and operational.
