Cape Coral Pool Electrical Safety: What Homeowners Should Know

Pool light and pump circuits should be GFCI-protected. Test GFCI outlets periodically per manufacturer directions, especially after Cape Coral thunderstorms.

Bonding — a bare copper wire connecting metal pool parts — helps prevent voltage differences. Cape Coral's corrosive coastal air is hard on bonding lugs; verify they're intact.

If you feel any tingle in the water, get out immediately and contact a licensed Cape Coral pool electrician.
