The Thomas Edison difference
Need a Bensalem electrician tonight, or next Tuesday at a time that suits you? Thomas Edison Electric covers all of ZIP 19020, home to 62,818 people, plus Croydon, Feasterville Trevose and Langhorne close by. Our electricians work directly for us, start each day from their own homes around Bucks County, and drive fully stocked TEE vans.
Recent Bensalem jobs include an EV charger disconnect in a garage, kitchen pendant lights, an outdoor GFCI outlet and an exterior LED flood light. We take big and small projects, 365 days a year. We hold Pennsylvania license PA075449, carry full insurance, and put every price in writing before work starts.
The electrician at your Bensalem door works for Thomas Edison Electric, passed a background check, and trains every week.
Aluminum branch circuits, 100-amp panels and recalled Federal Pacific or Zinsco panels are routine work for our crews.
Pendant lights, an outdoor GFCI outlet, a flood light or a new switch plate, all finished in one visit from a stocked van.
Service upgrades in ZIP 19020 involve PECO. We schedule the disconnect and the reconnect so you never have to.
You approve a written quote before we touch a wire. No surprise pricing when the job wraps up.
Over 37,000 jobs completed since 2021 across Pennsylvania and New Jersey, with financing available when you ask.

We're dedicated to building lasting relationships with every client through exceptional service and guaranteed results.
Our team delivers safe, affordable, long-lasting electrical services.
Your time is precious. If we're late, we'll waive your dispatch fee.
Transparent pricing means written quotes with no surprises.
The median build year for a Bensalem home is 1975. Houses from that stretch often carry aluminum branch wiring, a 100-amp panel and two-prong outlets. Some still have a recalled Federal Pacific or Zinsco panel in the basement. None of that is rare here, and none of it surprises us.
PECO Energy Company delivers the power in Bensalem. When a service upgrade or meter change needs a shutoff, we book it with PECO and handle the paperwork. On top of that, we remember September 2021, when the remnants of Hurricane Ida flooded parts of Bucks County and knocked out power across the county. A tornado hit the same night. If your panel or outlets sat in water then, an inspection is overdue.
Bristol sits 4.3 miles from Bensalem, Fairless Hills 5.8 and Levittown 5.9, and the same directly employed crews cover all of them. Call 215-227-7000 any hour. If we arrive late, the dispatch fee comes off the bill.

Panels come first in a 1975 Bensalem house. A 100-amp panel with no open slots cannot take a dryer circuit, let alone a Level 2 EV charger. If the label says Federal Pacific or Zinsco, replacement moves to the top of the list. A 200-amp upgrade solves capacity and safety in one job.
Aluminum branch wiring is next. Warm switch plates and outlets that quit point to loose aluminum connections. We fix them with approved connectors, or we run copper.
Then the everyday work. We install EV chargers in Bensalem garages, add dedicated circuits for kitchens and workshops, and swap two-prong outlets for grounded ones. Outdoor GFCI outlets, flood lights and pendant lighting round out a typical week here.
Electrical permits in Bensalem come from Bensalem Township under the Pennsylvania Uniform Construction Code. A third-party agency reviews the plans and inspects the work, which is how most Bucks County townships handle it. You never deal with any of that. We pull the permit, schedule the inspection and meet the inspector at your house, and the cost sits in your written quote.
Your electric utility is PECO Energy Company. PECO owns the lines, the meter and the outage map. We own everything past the meter, including the panel, the wiring and the outlets. For a service upgrade, we coordinate the PECO shutoff and the reconnect, so the power is off for as short a time as possible.
Our Pennsylvania and New Jersey experts are ready to resolve your electrical woes.

Mike Van Uiter and Steve came out to replace our main breaker panel after water came in and damaged it. They made sure everything was done professionally and neatly, labeled and easy to read. Mike also took time to answer other questions we had and make sure we were comfortable with how to do the generator hookup.

Klaus, Mike and Jim were amazing in getting power back to my barn. Our previous underground line failed and Thomas Edison was able to get a new line installed and powered all within 2 days of my call. Mike and Klaus worked late into the night to make sure we got power back on. Thanks for a great job!!!

Bensalem Electrical FAQs
Yes. Small jobs are welcome, any day of the year. A dead outlet, a ceiling fan, a flood light over the driveway or a GFCI by the patio all get the same treatment. The van carries the parts, so one visit usually finishes it, and you get a written price before we start.
Three things. The panel brand, because a Federal Pacific or Zinsco label means a recalled panel. The branch wiring, because aluminum needs every connection tightened with the right connectors. And the outlets, because two-prong outlets have no ground. Our safety inspection covers all three and ends with a written quote.
Yes, and we have. A Level 2 charger needs its own circuit and a panel with room for it. In a 1975 home that often means a panel upgrade first, which we price separately in writing. We also install the disconnect the charger needs and coordinate any meter work with PECO.
Yes. Financing is available, so ask about flexible payment options when you call 215-227-7000. You still get a written quote before any work starts, whether you finance or pay outright.
