The Thomas Edison difference
Thomas Edison Electric's Camden County electricians hold New Jersey electrical contractor license 34EB01791600. We carry full insurance and are a family-owned company, with more than 37,000 jobs completed since 2021. Our electricians are on our own payroll, not subcontracted, and each one starts the day from home in a fully stocked TEE van.
The county is small in area and dense in homes. A lot of those homes are older than the people living in them. A median build year of 1967 means 100 amp panels, aluminum branch wiring and two-prong outlets are part of daily life for our crews here. The occasional fuse box still turns up too. We handle all of that, plus the newer work: EV chargers, panel upgrades, generators and surge protection. You get a written quote first and a 24/7 phone line. We waive the dispatch fee if we're late.
License 34EB01791600. We file every Camden County permit under it through your municipal construction office.
Aluminum branch wiring, ungrounded outlets, 100 amp panels and the occasional fuse box. We know the fixes and the right order.
We coordinate service upgrades, meter work and disconnects with whichever utility serves your address.
Post-flood inspections, surge protection and generators, planned before the next nor'easter rather than after.
You approve the price before we start. That is the price you pay when we finish.
We give you an arrival window and hold ourselves to it. Miss it and we waive the fee.

Transparent pricing means written quotes with no surprises.
Two utilities serve Camden County. PSE&G is the primary, and it serves the city of Camden. Atlantic City Electric serves other parts of the county. For a homeowner, that matters exactly once. It happens when you upgrade your service, relocate a meter or need a disconnect for a panel swap. Each company has its own application, its own meter socket requirements and its own scheduling. We handle that coordination on every job. The lines and the meter are the utility's. Everything past the meter is ours.
Camden County sits along the Delaware River corridor, which brings its own weather. Nor'easters and the remnants of tropical storms bring flooding and outage risk. A house with a flooded basement needs its panel and low outlets opened and checked, not just dried. That storm exposure is one reason whole-home surge protection comes up in conversation here. A standby generator with a transfer switch comes up often too.
The rest is the daily work of an electrician in a county of older homes. We track down a dead circuit at eleven at night. We replace a panel that has run out of room, ground outlets, and add dedicated circuits for a new kitchen. Our crews also install EV chargers where the driveway allows. We cover Burlington County and Philadelphia County as well, with the same local electricians dispatching from home in the region.

Half the homes in Camden County date to before 1967, and the work we do here reflects that. The projects come in a rough order of urgency.
First, the things that can start a fire. Aluminum branch wiring from the sixties and seventies loosens at its connections and overheats. Warm outlet covers, buzzing switches and a smell of hot plastic are the tells. We install rated connectors or rewire the affected circuits. Panels from this period are usually 100 amps, sometimes still fuses, sometimes out of space with doubled-up breakers. Circuit breaker repair and upgrades covers replacing them.
Second, the things that protect you. Two-prong outlets have no ground. We add one where the wiring allows or fit GFCI protection where it doesn't.
Third, the things you want. A dedicated circuit for a new range. A Level 2 EV charger, which in a 1967 house nearly always means a panel conversation first. And after any basement flood, an electrical safety inspection.
Electrical permits in Camden County follow the New Jersey Uniform Construction Code, which puts them in the hands of your municipality. Each town has its own construction office and its own electrical sub-code official. Their forms and inspection schedules are not identical. We file under our New Jersey license, book the rough-in and final inspections, and meet the inspector on site. When we close out the job, you get the approval for your records, which matters the day you sell the house.
On the utility side, PSE&G serves the city of Camden and is the county's primary provider, with Atlantic City Electric serving other areas. We schedule any service upgrade, meter relocation or temporary disconnect with them, not you. If a storm takes down their lines, that outage is theirs to fix. If the lines are up and your house is still dark, or half of it is, call us, any hour of the year.
Our Pennsylvania and New Jersey experts are ready to resolve your electrical woes.

Jimmy made the service call easy. After describing our issue, 2 min max, he already knew what was wrong. He quickly identified, found, and fixed the offending GFI. After years of using Thomas Edison Electric we always refer them to friends and family.

Had a great experience with Michael Van for my initial inspection/walk-through and Steve P and the crew with the install. All of them, including the employees on the phone, were polite and prompt, and I'm very satisfied with my new electrical panel and wiring.

Camden County Electrical FAQs
We do. Our New Jersey electrical contractor license is 34EB01791600, and we carry full insurance on top of it. That is the license your Camden County permit falls under, and the town's electrical sub-code official inspects the finished work. You end up with code-compliant wiring and a closed permit to show for it.
With an electrical safety inspection. We open the panel, check for aluminum branch wiring, test outlets for grounding, and look at the condition of the service entrance. You get a written list ranked by urgency and a quote for each item. That way you can fix the dangerous things first and plan the rest.
It can. Camden County's river corridor location means nor'easters and tropical remnants bring flooding and outages. We recommend opening and inspecting any panel, outlet or junction box that has been underwater, because corrosion inside can cause failures long after everything looks dry. Surge protection and a generator are the usual next steps.
A licensed electrician, one of our own employees, arrives in a fully stocked TEE van. They look at the problem, explain it in plain language and give you a written quote before any work starts. The van carries the parts, so they come prepared to do the work that day. Emergency service runs 24/7, nights and holidays included. If we arrive later than the window we promised, we waive the dispatch fee.
