Dedicated Circuit Wiring, Breaker Install & Surge Protection – Fort Myers, FL

PROJECT DESCRIPTION: DEDICATED CIRCUIT INSTALLATION & SURGE PROTECTION – FORT MYERS, FL

We recently completed an electrical upgrade for a residential client in Fort Myers, FL 33919. The scope of work focused on adding a new dedicated circuit, installing a breaker, and protecting the home’s electrical system with surge protection.

• Installed new wiring for a dedicated 120V circuit
• Added a compatible circuit breaker to the existing panel
• Tuned up the panel by tightening connections and verifying load balance
• Installed whole-home surge protection to safeguard electronics and appliances
• Verified voltage and amperage at all major branch circuits
• Tested the new circuit for performance and proper grounding

The home now has a properly protected and isolated electrical path for the new appliance load—backed by updated surge protection and a cleaner, safer panel. This setup helps reduce tripped breakers, minimizes overload risk, and adds long-term electrical resilience.

Why was a dedicated circuit needed?
Dedicated circuits ensure that specific appliances or systems—like microwaves, refrigerators, or EV chargers—don’t overload shared circuits. It’s a safety and performance must.

What does a panel tune-up involve?
We inspect, tighten, and verify all breaker connections, check for corrosion or heat damage, and rebalance loads if needed. This extends the panel’s life and performance.

Is whole-home surge protection really necessary?
Yes. With the number of sensitive electronics in modern homes, surge protection helps prevent damage from lightning strikes or utility spikes. It’s an investment in peace of mind.

Was the power off during installation?
Yes, we safely shut down the panel during breaker installation and wiring, keeping downtime minimal—under 90 minutes total.

Can this work support future upgrades?
Absolutely. The dedicated circuit can be used now or later for appliances, and the panel is tuned and protected for reliable future use.
