Lackawaxen's median home dates to 1988, newer than a lot of the county, which helps and only sort of. Copper branch wiring is standard at that age, so the wiring itself rarely needs attention. Panel capacity is the part that runs short, especially once a heat pump, hot tub or EV charger gets added to a household that a 100 or 150-amp panel was never sized for.
A circuit breaker upgrade to 200 amps is the most common fix, and it clears room for whatever comes next, including a backup generator for the outages that come with a heavily wooded county. Our electricians are directly employed, not subcontracted, and dispatch from their own homes across the area.
A 100 or 150-amp panel handled a 1988 household fine, until a heat pump, hot tub or EV charger asked for more than it had to give. A 200-amp panel upgrade is the most common project we run here, clearing the way for whatever gets added next.
Backup generators are the other steady request, since a heavily wooded township loses power to trees more than flatter parts of the state. An automatic transfer switch keeps the well pump, furnace and refrigerator running without anyone flipping a switch.
Home EV charger installation, sized to the panel you'll actually have.
Dedicated circuits for hot tubs, workshops and well pumps.
Lackawaxen Township issues electrical permits under Pennsylvania's Uniform Construction Code. As in most of Pike County, the township uses a third-party agency for plan review and inspections rather than running its own building department. We file the permit, book the inspection, and are there when the inspector arrives.
PPL Electric Utilities is the main utility, with Pike County Light & Power and Penelec serving other parts of the county. A panel upgrade or generator install needs a coordinated disconnect and reconnect at the meter, and we schedule that with whichever utility feeds your home. Storm damage to the lines themselves is the utility's repair.
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!

Lackawaxen Electrical FAQs
It depends more on trees than the grid itself. Pike County is rural and heavily wooded, and storms bring down lines here more than in flatter areas. That's the main reason standby generators are one of our steadier jobs in Lackawaxen.
Often not without an upgrade. A 100 or 150-amp panel from that era wasn't built for both loads at once. We check your panel's actual capacity, and if it's close, a 200-amp upgrade gives you room for both.
Call us. A whole-street outage is a utility problem, handled by PPL Electric Utilities, Pike County Light & Power or Penelec. A partial outage inside one house usually points to a breaker or panel connection, which is our work.
Both. A standby generator with an automatic transfer switch works the same way whether the house is occupied daily or a few weekends a month. We size the unit to your panel and load, then handle the permit and utility coordination.
