Rowhomes and twins make up most of Darby, and the wiring inside them reflects a 1949 build year. Fuse boxes rated at 60 amps, knob-and-tube segments and outlets with no ground still turn up regularly when we open a panel here.
Every electrician on our Darby routes is a direct hire, dispatched from home rather than a company yard, so the borough gets covered like any other part of the county. The line is 610-789-8100, answered any hour.
PECO Energy Company keeps the lights on across the borough from the pole to the meter; past that point, the panel and everything downstream is ours to maintain. Hurricane Ida's remnants flooded parts of Delaware County in September 2021, and any Darby basement that saw water that night is worth a fresh look.
