Littlestown's typical home dates to 1966. Houses from that period often carry aluminum wiring on the branch circuits, 100-amp panels and two-prong outlets, and some of the original panels came from brands like Federal Pacific or Zinsco that have since been recalled.
Our electricians work throughout Littlestown and the surrounding area, and every van carries the parts for same-day repairs, not just estimates. Whether it's a tripping breaker, a dead circuit or a bigger panel question, the same crew can usually handle the whole visit.
Financing is available for larger projects like a full panel replacement, and we're happy to walk you through the options when you call.

The panel is usually where a Littlestown project starts. A 1966-era house often runs on 100 amps, and if the panel reads Federal Pacific or Zinsco, we recommend replacing it rather than repairing around it. A panel upgrade to 200 amps solves both the age and the recall risk at once.
Aluminum branch wiring is the other common issue. Warm switch plates or flickering lights often trace back to loose aluminum connections, which we correct with the right connectors or by running new copper. Two-prong outlets get grounded or GFCI protected along the way, and we handle amperage upgrades for anyone adding a heat pump, hot tub or EV charger to an older service.
Littlestown Borough issues electrical permits under Pennsylvania's Uniform Construction Code, and like most boroughs its size, plan review and inspection go through a third-party agency rather than an in-house department. We pull the permit, schedule the inspector and see the job through to a pass.
Met-Ed is the primary utility in Littlestown, with Adams Electric Cooperative serving other parts of the county. A service upgrade or meter move needs a scheduled disconnect with whichever one bills you, and that call is ours to make. Storm damage to the lines is the utility's repair. Everything behind the meter, any hour, is ours.
Our Pennsylvania and New Jersey experts are ready to fix your electrical problems.

I was extremely pleased with meeting Dennis T and with the work he completed today. He has a lovely personality, a level of professionalism that I appreciated and I was comfortable with him in my home, even into the evening to complete the work. I'm glad to have found Thomas Edison Electric and I would use the service again. Thank you Dennis for making this visit less painful.

Hector was amazing! Friendly, informative, fast, and respectful. Would absolutely recommend him to anyone looking for an electrician. He installed new outlets, dimmer switch’s and a fan. All projects were completed perfectly. Hector was also friendly and laid back and was kind enough to answer all of my questions.

We have an older Casablanca fan, it stopped functioning properly. Thomas Edison sent an electric technician out in two days. Nassim found the problem in the wall switch. I was given the opportunity to find a replacment switch . Once I secured the switch they were out in a few days. Installation was completed within an hour. Will use Thomas Edison again .

Our technician Dennis did an amazing job installing a new circuit panel and new outlets for us. We are so grateful and so happy to be able to plug multiple things in without tripping the breaker. Our lights also look so much brighter. Thank you so much! Very professional, very knowledgeable and estimates are fairly priced compared to the others around the area. Very happy overall. Highly recommend.

Littlestown Electrical FAQs
Yes. We answer calls 24/7, 365 days a year, holidays included. Our electricians live in the area and dispatch from home rather than a distant yard, so a Littlestown call gets someone who already knows the area. Call 215-227-7000 whenever the problem shows up.
Homes built around 1966, Littlestown's typical vintage, often used aluminum on the branch circuits. Warm outlet covers, flickering lights or a burning smell near a switch are common signs. An electrical safety inspection confirms it and tells you exactly what needs attention.
We do. Littlestown Borough issues permits under the state Uniform Construction Code, typically through a third-party inspection agency. We file the paperwork, schedule the inspection and are on site when the inspector arrives, so you're not stuck chasing forms.
It's worth checking. Federal Pacific and Zinsco panels were both sold in this area during the 1960s and have since been recalled for failing to trip properly. We can open the panel, identify the brand and give you a written quote if replacement makes sense.
