Factors to Consider When Installing an Outdoor Outlet in Land O' Lakes
An outdoor outlet installation in Land O' Lakes requires some consideration and planning. The National Electrical Code (NEC) has many standards your outlet must comply with to ensure safety and functionality. The electricians at Mr. Electric have experience and knowledge with outdoor electric outlet installation and will make sure your new outlet is convenient and protected.
Type of Outlet Receptacle to Install Outdoors
All outdoor receptacles must have ground-fault circuit interrupter (GFCI) protection. These receptacles monitor the incoming current and shut the circuit if it detects an abnormal current. GFCI outlets reduce the chance of shock and electrocution to keep you and your family safe. When Mr. Electric installs your outdoor electrical outlet in Land O' Lakes, our electricians will make sure your exterior GFCI outlets support the power you require without overloading.
Where to Install an Outdoor Electrical Outlet
The location of an outdoor outlet is a critical decision. Homes should have at least one outdoor outlet in the front and one in the rear for convenience.
Besides the exterior wall, there are other location criteria to follow for NEC compliance. For example, the outlet cannot exceed 6.5 feet above ground level or the walking surface. If the outlet is near a pool, it must be 6 to 20 feet from the pool's edge.
How to Weatherproof an Outdoor Outlet
Since outdoor outlets are exposed to the elements, they must be protected with a weatherproof cover. This cover seals the outlet from rain, snow, dirt and other potentially damaging contaminants.
When you install an outdoor outlet, protect your outlet with an in-use cover that covers it even when a cord is plugged in. These covers have an opening at the bottom to make room for the cord while protecting the plug and outlet.
