Electrical Service Across Abington Township

The typical Abington home dates to 1956, so half the houses here are older than that. Homes from that stretch often keep a few leftovers: knob-and-tube remnants in the attic, a fuse box in the basement, a 60-amp service and outlets with no ground. None of that is a crisis on its own. All of it deserves a look before you add a dryer, a mini-split or a car charger.

Every electrician who rings your bell in Abington works for Thomas Edison Electric, not for a subcontractor. Each one passed a background check and trains weekly on current code. Because they head out from their own homes, the van in your driveway already carries the breakers, wire and fixtures for most repairs. The same crews handle Wyncote, Huntingdon Valley and Dresher.

PECO Energy Company delivers power to ZIP 19001. Outages and downed lines belong to PECO. Anything from the meter inward belongs to us, at any hour. In September 2021 the remnants of Hurricane Ida sent flash floods through Montgomery County and knocked out power across the county. If your basement took water then, and the panel sits down there, book an inspection. Corroded connections fail later, not right away.

Common Electrical Projects in Abington Homes

The 1956 house sets the agenda in Abington. These are the jobs that fill our week here:

  • Fuse box to breaker panel. A panel upgrade retires the fuse box and the 60-amp service, brings in 200 amps of capacity, and we schedule the PECO reconnect ourselves.

  • Knob-and-tube removal. Old runs still feed an attic light or a bedroom outlet in plenty of homes here. We trace them, pull new copper and leave nothing live behind the plaster.

  • Grounding two-prong outlets. Either a real ground wire or GFCI protection, chosen room by room with you.

  • [Dedicated circuits](/services/dedicated-circuits) for the window air conditioner, the dryer and the kitchen counter, so the same breaker stops tripping every July.

  • [EV charger](/services/home-ev-charger-installation) installation once the panel has room. A Level 2 charger needs its own circuit, and we do the load math before we quote it.

Permits, Inspections and Your Utility in Abington

Abington Township issues electrical permits under Pennsylvania's Uniform Construction Code. Like most townships in Montgomery County, it relies on a third-party inspection agency for plan review and the final check. You do not need to learn that process. We pull the permit, schedule the inspector and stay until the job passes. The cost sits inside your written quote.

PECO Energy Company is the utility for ZIP 19001. A service upgrade, a new meter base or a panel swap needs PECO to cut power at the meter and restore it afterward. We book both ends and set the timing with you. Storm damage on the lines is PECO's repair. The meter socket, the panel and every wire inside the house are our repair, whatever the hour.

Electrical service

I was really impressed with Don and Engeli and the work they performed for me. We had a discussion on the best way to run the new line for the septic pump and I really appreciated the extra effort they made to keep the esthetic of my home's exterior. They were pleasant and professional and all my fans and lights work great! They were patient and waited until I approved everything. A great team!

Abington Electrical FAQs

Do you have an emergency electrician in Abington after hours?

Yes. We pick up 24/7, 365 days a year, holidays included. Our Abington electricians dispatch from their own homes in stocked TEE vans, so the repair usually happens on the first visit. Call 215-947-1400 and describe what you see. Should we arrive late, the dispatch fee is on us.

Should I replace the fuse box in my 1956 Abington home?

Fuses still work, but a 60-amp fuse panel has no room for central air, a dryer and a car charger at once. A 200-amp breaker panel adds capacity and makes every future circuit simple. We give you a written price first and handle the PECO scheduling for the reconnect.

Is knob-and-tube wiring dangerous?

Not always, but it has no ground, and it cannot sit under insulation safely. In Abington homes from the 1950s we often find short leftover runs that an earlier rewire skipped. A safety inspection maps what remains, and we price the removal in writing.

My basement flooded during Ida. Does the panel need a look?

Yes. The September 2021 flooding in Montgomery County put plenty of basement panels under water. A panel can dry out and keep working while corrosion builds inside the breakers and lugs. We open it, test each connection and tell you in plain terms whether it stays or goes.
