The Thomas Edison difference

Your Electricians in Bucks County

Thomas Edison Electric's Bucks County electricians work for a multigenerational, family-owned company headquartered in Newtown, Bucks County. This county is home. They dispatch from their own homes across the county in fully stocked TEE vans. Doylestown, Levittown, Bristol, Langhorne, Bensalem, Warminster and Warrington are everyday stops. Quakertown, Perkasie and New Hope are too.

We hold Pennsylvania license PA075449, we're fully insured, and we're past the 37,000 jobs completed since 2021 mark. What that means for you is simple. You call, a licensed electrician shows up, and you get a price in writing before the work starts. If you're calling at two in the morning on a holiday, someone still answers.

A Bucks County company

This is our home county. Our crews dispatch from their own homes here. Their TEE vans roll out fully stocked for the day.

PECO, PPL or a borough system

Quakertown and Perkasie run their own electric departments. We know whose forms to file for your upgrade.

Ida taught us something

After the September 2021 flooding, generators, surge protection and post-flood panel inspections became standard conversations here.

1975 homes, understood

Aluminum branch wiring, 100 amp panels and ungrounded outlets are typical of the county's median build year, and we correct them properly.

Written quote before work

The number you approve is the number you pay. No surprise pricing at the end of the day.

On time, or we waive the dispatch fee

We are your neighbors. Showing up when we said we would is the least we can do.

Electrical Service Across Bucks County

Four different electric providers serve Bucks County, and we work with all of them. PECO serves most of the county and is the utility most of our Bucks clients have. PPL Electric Utilities serves other areas, and Perkasie and Quakertown each run their own borough-owned electric systems. If you live in one of those two boroughs, a service upgrade goes through the borough, not PECO. The requirements differ there too. We sort that out on the first call.

Weather is part of the story here. The remnants of Hurricane Ida came through in September 2021. Bucks County saw severe flash flooding, widespread power outages and a tornado that same night. That night is why we talk with Bucks County homeowners about whole-home surge protection. We also recommend backup generators with transfer switches, plus post-flood inspections of any panel or outlet that took on water.

The other half of our Bucks County work is ordinary and important. We handle emergency repairs at any hour, panel replacements, and dedicated circuits for kitchens and workshops. We also handle EV chargers, lighting, ceiling fans, and safety inspections for buyers and sellers. Our crews start the day from home, with the van stocked for the job. We also cover the neighbors. On the Pennsylvania side that's Montgomery, Lehigh, Northampton and Philadelphia Counties, and in New Jersey it's Mercer and Burlington Counties.

Common Electrical Projects in Bucks County Homes

The median Bucks County home dates to 1975. That means a lot of the houses we see are carrying original 1970s electrical systems. Three things come up again and again:

  • Aluminum branch wiring. Its connections loosen over time and can overheat. We correct them with properly rated connectors or rewire.

  • 100 amp panels that are out of room and out of date. Central air, a hot tub and an EV charger need more. A panel upgrade to 200 amps, arranged with PECO, PPL or your borough, fixes it.

  • Two-prong ungrounded outlets, which we ground or protect with GFCIs.

The newer request is home EV charger installation, which nearly always starts with a look at panel capacity. And since Ida in 2021, backup generator installation and whole-home surge protection have become common requests across the county. If your basement took water that year, get a safety inspection of the panel and any outlets below the flood line.

Permits, Inspections and Your Utility in Bucks County

Permits in Bucks County go through your municipality under the Pennsylvania Uniform Construction Code. Most townships and boroughs here contract with a third-party inspection agency to review plans and inspect work. That means Newtown does it one way, Doylestown another, and Bristol a third. Pulling permits across the county day in and day out means we know the process wherever you are. We file it, schedule the inspection and meet the inspector.

On the utility side, PECO is the company most Bucks homeowners deal with. PPL serves other areas, and Perkasie and Quakertown residents are on borough-owned systems. For a service upgrade, meter relocation or panel swap, we book the disconnect and reconnect with whichever one you have. When a storm takes out the lines, that is the utility's job to restore. From the meter into your house, it's ours, any hour, any day of the year.

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!

Bucks County Electrical FAQs

Do you use subcontractors?

No. Every electrician who comes to your Bucks County home works directly for Thomas Edison Electric. Each one starts the day at home, in the county, with a stocked TEE van. That is why you see our vans in Levittown, Doylestown and Quakertown on any given week. You get a written quote before the work starts, every time.

What should I do if my basement flooded during Ida?

If a panel, outlet or junction box was underwater in the September 2021 flooding, get it checked. That holds even if nobody has inspected it since. Water leaves corrosion inside breakers and connections that can fail months later. We inspect, document what we find, and give you a written quote for anything that needs replacing.

Do you install generators in Bucks County?

Yes, and the September 2021 outages made a lot of people think about it. A standby generator with a transfer switch keeps your sump pump, furnace and refrigerator running during a PECO or PPL outage. We size it, install it, pull the permit and coordinate the utility side. Financing is available.

Which utility serves my part of Bucks County?

For most of the county it's PECO. PPL Electric Utilities serves other areas, and Perkasie and Quakertown run their own borough electric departments. Your bill will tell you. It matters for upgrades and meter work because each has its own process, and we coordinate with all four.
