Frequently Asked Questions
My pool pump keeps tripping the breaker. Could Orlando's humidity be the cause?
Absolutely. High humidity is a common culprit for electrical faults in pool equipment around Orlando. Moisture can corrode connections and cause ground faults or short circuits. At JLT Electric, we start with a thorough inspection of your pool's wiring, GFCI protection, and circuit breaker. We then perform any necessary wire repair or panel upgrades to ensure your pool system operates safely and reliably, preventing nuisance trips and potential hazards.
What should I look for during an electrical inspection for my older Orlando home?
For older homes in our climate, we focus on moisture damage, outdated wiring (like aluminum or knob-and-tube), and overloaded panels—common sources of short circuits. Our inspection checks for corrosion in outlets and panels, verifies proper grounding for pool equipment, and assesses if your current system can handle modern demands. This proactive approach helps us recommend targeted repairs or a panel upgrade before a minor issue becomes a major problem.
I'm getting an electric vehicle. Can my existing home electrical panel support a charging station?
Many older Orlando homes have panels that are already near capacity. Installing an EV charger often requires a dedicated circuit and may necessitate a panel upgrade or sub-panel installation. JLT Electric will evaluate your current electrical load, including any pool equipment or major appliances, to determine if your panel can safely handle the addition. We handle the entire EV charging station installation, ensuring it's permitted, up to code, and ready for convenient, fast charging at home.
