The Thomas Edison difference

Ridley Park sits 0.6 miles away, Prospect Park 0.9, and Holmes, Woodlyn, Morton and Norwood all fall inside a mile and a half. We serve every one of them.
Each electrician on the job works for us directly. No subcontractors. They leave from their own homes in TEE vans stocked the night before, so most repairs finish on the first visit. Our company is family-owned across generations and award-winning, with Pennsylvania license PA075449 and insurance behind every job. Call 610-789-8100 any hour.
Fuse boxes, 60-amp services and ungrounded outlets in Folsom homes get a plain assessment and a written price.
The electrician at your door is a Thomas Edison Electric employee who dispatches from home in a stocked TEE van.
Service upgrades in ZIP 19033 need PECO at the meter, and we schedule that visit for you.

The median Folsom home dates to 1957. Builders of that era planned for a few lamps, a refrigerator and not much else. So fuse boxes, 60-amp services, ungrounded outlets and knob-and-tube remnants still show up on our calls here. None of that scares us. It just sets the order of work: service size first, then the panel, then the circuits people actually use.
Modern life pulls far more current than 1957 did. A dryer, a central air unit and an electric range can overwhelm a 60-amp service on a hot afternoon. If the lights dim when the compressor kicks on, that is an amperage problem, and a bigger service usually solves it. We put the price in writing before the first screw comes out.
Then there is September 2021. The remnants of Hurricane Ida flooded basements and cut power across Delaware County. Panels and outlets that took water can corrode for years before they fail. If yours got wet and nobody has looked since, book an inspection.
Service upgrades top the list. A 60-amp service cannot feed a modern kitchen, a dryer and central air at once, so we bring many Folsom homes up to 200 amps. That job replaces the fuse box with a breaker panel and adds room for whatever comes next. See circuit breaker repair and upgrades.
Ungrounded outlets come next. Two-prong receptacles from 1957 leave modern electronics with no ground path. We add a real ground where the wiring allows it, or GFCI protection where it does not.
Knob-and-tube remnants need care rather than panic. We trace what is live, retire what is not, and pull new copper for the circuits you use daily. And since a 1957 panel never planned for a car, a Level 2 EV charger gets its own dedicated circuit sized for the load.
Folsom is a census-designated place rather than a borough, so its township issues the electrical permit. Pennsylvania's Uniform Construction Code sets the rules, and most townships in Delaware County hand plan review and inspections to a third-party agency. We file the permit, schedule the inspection and meet the inspector on site. Those costs sit inside your written quote, not on top of it.
PECO Energy Company is the utility for all of ZIP 19033. A service upgrade needs PECO to pull the meter and reconnect it later, and we book both ends. When a storm takes out the street, call PECO first. When only your house has trouble, call us at 610-789-8100, at any hour.
Our Pennsylvania and New Jersey experts are ready to resolve your electrical woes.

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!

Had a back up generator installed by Dennis. He did a wonderful job. Dennis is very knowledgeable, thorough, patient and goes above and beyond. Will definitely be using Thomas Edison for all my electrical. Could not be happier.

Technician came out within an hour for an investigation late at night. The same technician came back the next morning and replaced the breaker panel, meter box, and ran new conduit up to the roof for the connections. Did a fantastic job and everything looks great. Thanks Arthur and Malcolm for your hard work!

Folsom Electrical FAQs
Yes. We answer 24/7, 365 days a year, and holidays count. Our electricians live around Delaware County and dispatch from home in fully stocked TEE vans, so a sparking outlet in Folsom at 2 a.m. gets a licensed electrician, not a voicemail. Call 610-789-8100.
Not by itself. Plenty of 1957 homes run on fuses without incident. The trouble starts when someone installs an oversized fuse to stop the blowing, or when a 60-amp service feeds a modern load. We check the box, the service size and your plans, then quote the options in writing.
Usually, once we confirm the service can carry it. A range, dryer or AC outlet needs its own circuit at the right amperage. If the panel is full or the service is small, we upgrade first and coordinate the meter work with PECO.
Maybe. Water in September 2021 reached panels and low outlets across Delaware County, and corrosion inside a breaker panel does not announce itself. Our safety inspection tells you what still passes and what needs replacing. You get the findings and prices in writing.
