Apopka Electrical Company handles residential and commercial electrical work across Apopka and Orange County, Florida. Whether you need a quick outlet repair, a full panel upgrade, or a generator hooked up before storm season, we are available every day from 6:30 AM to 9:30 PM to take your call and get the job scheduled. We pick up the phone and get it handled. From a single tripped breaker to a whole-home rewire, you reach someone who can scope the job on the call and tell you what to expect before anything is booked.
We answer the phone. We show up ready to work. We test before we leave.
Good electrical work isn't complicated, it's just done right, and it starts with finding the actual problem before touching anything. When outlets go dead, lights flicker, breakers trip repeatedly, or you catch a burning smell near a panel or receptacle, those are symptoms that need a proper diagnostic, not a guess.
A troubleshooting visit covers the full picture: testing circuits, checking for loose connections, identifying wiring faults, and confirming whether GFCI or AFCI protection is doing its job. Partial power loss in one part of a home often points to a failed breaker or a wiring fault upstream. Sparks from an outlet or a burning smell are reasons to stop using that circuit and call right away.
We walk through what we find before any work begins. Clear communication from the first call to the final test means you know what the fault is, what fixing it involves, and what it costs before we schedule anything. One call and we are on it.
From older homes to new commercial builds, panel capacity is one of the first things that limits what a property can do. A 100-amp panel that made sense decades ago runs short fast when you add a second AC unit, an EV charger, or a large kitchen appliance. Fuse boxes are a more direct concern: they were not designed for the loads modern homes carry, and they are frequently flagged during inspections and insurance reviews.
A panel upgrade involves replacing the existing equipment, sizing the new panel to the actual load, running the service entrance properly, and confirming that the wiring feeding it meets current standards. Where a property needs circuits in a detached structure or a large addition, a subpanel keeps the main panel from being overloaded. Load calculations are part of how we scope the job, so the panel we install fits what the property actually needs now and has room for what comes next.
Straight answers about your panel and wiring are part of every visit. We'll handle the wiring so you don't have to.
Homes and businesses need different wiring answers, but the day-to-day work covers a lot of the same ground. Outlets wear out, switches fail, and lighting that made sense when a home was built does not always fit how people use the space now. We handle outlet and switch installs across the board, including GFCI outlets in kitchens, bathrooms, garages, and outdoor areas, and AFCI outlets where arc-fault protection is required by code.
Recessed LED lighting, under-cabinet lighting, dimmer switches, and motion sensor lights all change how a space feels and functions. Landscape and security lighting around the exterior adds visibility without a complicated installation. Ceiling fan wiring is one of the more common calls we get, whether it is a new fan going in where only a light fixture existed before or a replacement that needs the box and wiring brought up to the load.
Grounding and bonding are part of every outlet and fixture job we do, not an afterthought. Arc-fault and ground-fault breakers get installed where the work calls for them. We protect your floors and finishes while we work, which matters in finished rooms where a job done carelessly leaves marks behind. We're ready to get your circuits working again.
Orange County sits in the middle of Florida's lightning corridor, hurricane season runs June through November, and a backyard pool is a standard feature on a lot of properties here. The electrical work that comes up most often in this area reflects all of that. These three services come up constantly in Apopka and the surrounding communities.
When a storm takes out the grid, a standby generator keeps the lights on, the refrigerator running, and the AC circuits live. The electrical side of a generator hookup covers the transfer switch, the dedicated circuit feeding the unit, and confirming that the panel has the capacity to handle the load safely. A transfer switch is what isolates your home from the utility line so the generator can run without risk to the equipment or anyone working on the line outside.
We handle the full electrical scope of a generator installation: sizing the circuit, wiring the transfer switch, and testing the system before we leave. Florida storm season makes this work time-sensitive, and scheduling before the season starts is the practical move. Leave the breakers to us.
Florida leads the country in lightning strikes, and a single event can push a damaging voltage spike through every circuit in a home or commercial building. A power strip with surge protection handles the device plugged into it and nothing else. A whole-home surge protection device installed at the panel intercepts a spike before it reaches any circuit in the building.
Grounding and bonding are part of what makes a whole-home device work correctly, and an electrical safety inspection can confirm whether the existing grounding is up to the job. For properties with sensitive electronics, solar systems, or battery storage, panel-level protection is worth the conversation. We'll handle the wiring so you don't have to.
Year-round outdoor living in Apopka means pools and spas get used consistently, and the electrical work around them needs to be done to a specific standard. A pool or hot tub requires a dedicated circuit sized for the equipment, GFCI protection on every outlet and receptacle in the area, and outdoor wiring that is rated for the exposure it will face.
Dock and outdoor circuits follow the same logic: the wiring, the conduit, and the protection devices all need to hold up to Florida's heat and humidity over time. Electrical work done to the standard the next inspection expects is not optional around water. We scope the job on the call and confirm what the installation involves before anything is scheduled.
From a single GFCI outlet to a whole-home rewire, the first step is the same: figure out what the job actually requires before quoting it. Dedicated circuits come up constantly, whether it is a dryer outlet that needs a four-prong upgrade, a 240-volt circuit for an electric range, or a circuit for a new refrigerator in a garage that has never had one.
EV charger installation is one of the faster-growing requests we handle. A Level 2 home charger needs a dedicated 240-volt circuit, and depending on the panel's current load, that sometimes means a service-entrance or meter upgrade before the charger circuit can be added. We work through the panel capacity question on the call so you know what the full scope looks like.
Hardwired smoke and CO detectors, bathroom exhaust fans, attic fans, and dedicated appliance circuits all fall into this category. These are not complicated jobs individually, but they need to be done correctly so they pass inspection and work reliably.
A price agreed before every visit. Clear scheduling every visit. Code-compliant every visit.
The sooner you call, the sooner the power is back on, but for older homes, the conversation is sometimes bigger than a single repair. Knob-and-tube wiring was standard for decades and is still present in a significant number of homes in Orange County. It was not designed for modern electrical loads, it lacks a ground conductor, and insurance carriers increasingly decline to cover it or raise premiums when it is present.
Aluminum wiring from the 1960s and 1970s presents a different set of concerns: it expands and contracts at a different rate than the devices it connects to, which loosens connections over time and creates heat at the termination points. Remediation involves addressing every connection point in the home, not just replacing a few outlets.
A full rewire is a significant project, but the scope depends on the home. We walk through what the job involves, what it will take to complete it, and what the customer can expect at each stage. We're ready to get your circuits working again.
Good electrical work isn't complicated, it's just done right, and an inspection is how you find out whether what is already in the walls meets that standard. An electrical safety inspection covers panel condition, wiring age and type, GFCI and AFCI coverage, grounding, and any visible hazards in accessible areas.
These inspections come up most often before a home purchase, after a major storm, when an insurance carrier asks for documentation, or when something in the home is behaving strangely and the cause is not obvious. Code-compliant wiring and a panel in good condition are things a buyer, a landlord, and a property manager all have an interest in confirming.
Electrical safety inspections are also a practical step before adding load to an older home. If you are planning an EV charger, a generator hookup, or a kitchen renovation, knowing the current state of the panel and wiring before the project starts avoids surprises mid-job. One call and we are on it.
From a single GFCI outlet to a whole-home rewire, the first step is the same: get the price on the phone before anything is scheduled. When you call, we ask about the job, scope what is involved, and give you a rate before a visit is booked. You know what the work covers and what it costs before we confirm the appointment.
That applies to every job type, whether it is a panel upgrade, an EV charger circuit, a generator hookup, or a straightforward repair. Clear communication from the first call to the final test means the scope and the price are settled upfront, and any questions about what is included get a direct answer. We're ready to get your circuits working again.

Call (689) 362-1899 and we will work out the scheduling on that same call.
Yes. We work in homes, offices, retail spaces, and light commercial properties throughout Apopka and Orange County. The process is the same regardless of property type: the scope and price are confirmed on the call before anything is scheduled. Commercial panel upgrades, circuit additions, and lighting installations are all part of what we do.
Flickering lights, dead outlets, a breaker that trips repeatedly under normal loads, a burning smell near a switch or panel, buzzing from an outlet, or sparks when you plug something in are all reasons to call. Some of these symptoms point to a straightforward fix, and others indicate a wiring fault that needs attention before it becomes a safety issue. The diagnostic visit is where we identify which situation you are dealing with.
Yes. Apopka and the surrounding Orange County area include homes built across several decades, and some of those properties still have knob-and-tube wiring, aluminum branch circuit wiring, or fuse boxes that were never upgraded. We handle targeted repairs, partial rewires, and full whole-home rewiring projects depending on what the property needs.
We are available every day from 6:30 AM to 9:30 PM, which covers early morning and evening calls that do not fit a standard nine-to-five window. If you need work scheduled around a specific time, mention it when you call and we will confirm what the schedule allows.
Short-notice calls are something the schedule regularly makes room for.
Call (689) 362-1899 as early in the day as possible and we will let you know what is available. Short-notice work is something we take on regularly.
It depends on the job. Some work, like replacing an outlet or switch, requires the circuit to be de-energized. Panel work requires the main to be off for portions of the job. We confirm what the visit will involve when we scope it on the call, so you know in advance whether to expect any interruption to power in specific areas of the home.
It helps to have someone present who can answer questions and confirm access to the panel and any areas where work is being done. If you cannot be there, make sure the relevant spaces are accessible and that someone is reachable by phone during the visit. We will confirm the details when we schedule.
Deposit requirements depend on the scope of the job. For larger projects like a whole-home rewire or a full panel replacement, we discuss payment terms when we confirm the quote.

From a tripped breaker to a full panel upgrade, we handle the electrical work that keeps homes and businesses in Apopka running safely. The table below covers what each service includes, who it fits best, and what is worth knowing before you call. If a job is not listed or you are not sure which service applies, call us and we will scope it on the phone.
| Type of Work | Scope of Work | Best For | Good to Know |
|---|---|---|---|
| Electrical Repairs & Troubleshooting |
| Any home or business with an unexplained electrical symptom | The cause of a symptom is not always at the device itself. We trace the fault to its source before quoting any repair work. |
| Lighting Installation |
| Homeowners upgrading interior lighting or adding exterior security coverage | In Apopka's climate, outdoor fixtures are in use year-round. Material selection and weatherproofing matter more here than in cooler regions. |
| Wiring & Circuit Installation |
| Older homes with wiring that has reached the end of its useful life, or any property adding new circuits | Apopka has a range of housing ages. Where older wiring is the underlying problem, a rewire is a straightforward job when it is planned correctly. |
| Breaker & Fuse Repair |
| Homes where breakers trip repeatedly or a fuse box is still in service | A breaker that trips under normal load is telling you something. We check the breaker, the circuit, and the load before replacing anything. |
| Ceiling Fan Installation |
| Any room adding or replacing a ceiling fan, especially where no existing wiring is present | If the ceiling box was not rated for a fan, we replace it before the fan goes up. That is a safety requirement, not an upsell. |
| Outlet & Switch Installation |
| Kitchens, bathrooms, garages, and any room with failing or missing outlets | GFCI protection is required by code in kitchens, bathrooms, garages, and outdoor locations. We install to current code on every job. |
| Electrical Safety Inspections |
| Buyers before closing, landlords managing rentals, and homeowners who want to know where their system stands | An inspection gives you a clear picture of what the system actually looks like. Findings are explained before any repair or upgrade work is quoted. |
| Surge & Lightning Protection |
| Any Central Florida home or business where lightning exposure is a real and recurring risk | Florida leads the country in lightning strikes per square mile. A panel-level protector intercepts voltage before it reaches your circuits and appliances. |
| Pool & Spa Wiring |
| Apopka homeowners installing or upgrading pool and spa equipment | Bonding all metal components around the pool is a code requirement and a direct safety measure, not optional. We include it in every pool wiring job. |
| Electrical Panel & Service Upgrades |
| Homes adding EV chargers, pool equipment, or major appliances to an undersized panel | Panel upgrades in Orange County typically require a permit and a subsequent inspection. We confirm what applies to your address when we scope the job. |
| Dedicated Appliance Circuits |
| Any home adding a major appliance or workshop equipment to an existing circuit | Running a large appliance on a shared circuit is a load problem waiting to become a breaker problem. A dedicated circuit is sized for the actual draw. |
| Whole-Home Generator Installation |
| Apopka homeowners preparing for hurricane season and extended power outages | Getting the hookup done before storm season starts is the right time. We handle the full electrical side, not the generator unit itself. |
Call (689) 362-1899 and we will talk through what the job involves, what it will cost, and when we can get it done.
