Experienced Electricians in Orlando, FL 32824 - Met Electric

An outlet that's warm or hot to the touch is a serious safety warning, especially in our Florida heat which can exacerbate electrical issues. This often indicates an overloaded circuit, loose wiring, or a failing outlet itself, all of which can lead to a fire hazard. You should immediately stop using that outlet. Contact Met Electric for a professional electrical inspection. We'll safely diagnose the root cause—whether it's at the outlet, within your electrical panel, or elsewhere—and perform the necessary repair or replacement to restore safety to your home.

Orlando's humidity and rain make outdoor outlets particularly vulnerable. The best protection is professional installation of weatherproof outlet covers ("bubble covers") and GFCI (Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter) outlets, which are required by code and cut power instantly if moisture is detected. Met Electric specializes in outdoor outlet installation and replacement. We ensure a proper, sealed installation with the correct rated equipment to prevent water intrusion and corrosion, giving you safe, durable power for your patio, pool, or landscape lighting.

Yes, flickering lights can be a symptom of a struggling or outdated electrical panel, especially in older Orlando homes that may not have the capacity for modern appliances and central air conditioning. An overloaded panel can't distribute power evenly, causing flickers and posing a risk of overheating. Met Electric's experts can perform a thorough panel inspection to assess its health and capacity. If needed, we provide expert electrical panel repair or replacement to ensure your home's entire system has a safe, robust foundation, eliminating flickers and preventing potential hazards.
