The Thomas Edison difference
Reliable Electricians in McKnightstown
A McKnightstown electrician from Thomas Edison Electric is always our own employee, never a subcontractor, dispatching from home in a fully stocked TEE van. McKnightstown, ZIP 17343, sits in Adams County, with Orrtanna just 2.5 miles off, Arendtsville at 3.8 and Biglerville at 6.0.
We carry PA license PA075449 and full insurance, with over 37,000 jobs completed since 2021. Call 215-227-7000 any hour. Every job comes with a written quote before work starts, and a late arrival waives the dispatch fee.

What We Find in McKnightstown Homes
McKnightstown's typical home dates to 1938, among the oldest housing stock in this part of the county. Knob-and-tube remnants, fuse boxes, 60-amp services and ungrounded outlets are still common finds in houses this age.
Old wiring like this is often fine until it isn't, so we recommend a look before it becomes an emergency. Ungrounded outlets near a kitchen or workshop are a quick fix, and we flag anything that reads as an electrical code violation so you know what to prioritize and what can wait.
Permits, Inspections and Your Utility in McKnightstown
McKnightstown has no borough hall, so electrical permits run through the surrounding township under Pennsylvania's Uniform Construction Code, typically through a third-party agency for plan review and inspection. We manage the entire process, from filing to the final inspection.
Met-Ed is the main utility here, with Adams Electric Cooperative covering other parts of the county. A panel or service upgrade needs a scheduled shutoff at the meter, and we coordinate that with whichever one bills you. Storm damage to the lines is the utility's job. Everything past the meter, any hour, is ours.

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.
