- Consider upgrading decorations to LED; LEDs typically use around 75–85% less power than incandescent.
- If you plan to keep incandescent decorations, we may recommend:
– Adding dedicated outdoor outlets or a new circuit to handle the load (requires a licensed electrician).
– Distributing decorations across multiple circuits to balance demand.
– Using smart or traditional timers to stagger run times and reduce peak load.
– Inspecting and replacing aging GFIs/outlets and evaluating breakers to prevent nuisance tripping.
