Possible causes :

A-Coil freezing up and thawing out overflowing drain pan due to dirty filter, blower motor, blower wheel, a-coil, blower motor not working,restriction at metering device, drain line clogged up,rusted out or cracked drain pan or low refrigerant charge.

Can also be bent fins on a-coil, wrong blower speed, new a-coil not coated with dish detergent to wash off film from factory, electric furnace with a-coil on top not having a trap in the drain line.
