The Thomas Edison difference
Call a Media electrician from Thomas Edison Electric and you reach someone who already works the county seat. Media Borough covers three ZIP codes, 19063, 19065 and 19091, and its 5,870 residents live in housing with a median build year of 1959. Glen Riddle Lima sits 0.8 miles away, Wallingford 2.1 and Swarthmore 2.2, and the same crews serve them all across Delaware County.
Every electrician on the crew is a Thomas Edison Electric employee who dispatches from home in a stocked TEE van. Pennsylvania license PA075449 and full insurance back every job, and 610-789-8100 answers 24/7.
19063, 19065 and 19091 all get the same crews, the same written pricing and the same 24/7 line.
Fuse boxes, 60-amp services and ungrounded outlets are everyday work in Media homes.
No subcontractors. Our electricians dispatch from their own homes in fully stocked TEE vans.
A service upgrade needs PECO to pull and reset the meter, and we schedule it.
The price is on paper first, and it stays put unless the job changes.
PA075449, over 37,000 jobs completed since 2021, financing available, dispatch fee waived if we are late.
We're dedicated to building lasting relationships with every client through exceptional service and guaranteed results.

Transparent pricing means written quotes with no surprises.
A 1959 build in Media typically came with a 60-amp service, a fuse box, and outlets with no ground. Some houses still have knob-and-tube remnants in the attic or behind plaster. Others have picked up additions with newer wiring bolted onto the old. Because the mix varies block by block, we open the panel before we say anything.
From there, the usual sequence: a 200-amp service with a breaker panel, then grounded or GFCI-protected outlets, then the circuits that modern living asks for. Dedicated circuits for a kitchen remodel. A Level 2 EV charger in the garage.
Delaware County also took Ida's remnants in September 2021, with flash flooding and outages. Panels and outlets that got wet then deserve a test now.
Panel and service upgrades top the list in Media. A fuse box on a 60-amp service becomes a breaker panel on 200 amps, which ends the fuse hunting and adds room for new circuits. Details under circuit breaker repair and upgrades.
Grounding comes next. Two-prong outlets get a ground where the cable allows or GFCI protection where it does not. We trace knob-and-tube remnants, retire what we can and run copper on the circuits you use most.
Then the upgrades people actually enjoy: custom lighting for a dining room or porch, and a whole-home surge protector at the panel.
Media Borough issues electrical permits under Pennsylvania's Uniform Construction Code. As in most Delaware County boroughs, a third-party inspection agency reviews the plan and inspects the work. You never have to chase that process. We file the permit, book the inspection and walk the inspector through the job, and the fee lives inside your written quote.
PECO Energy Company delivers power to all three Media ZIP codes. Service upgrades need PECO at the meter for the disconnect and the reconnect, and we set both. If the whole street loses power, call PECO. If the trouble is only in your house, call 610-789-8100.
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!

Media Electrical FAQs
Yes. 19063, 19065 and 19091 all get the same electricians, who live around Delaware County and dispatch from home. One number covers all three: 610-789-8100, answered 24/7, 365 days a year.
Keep it, if it works and the fuses match the wire. Or replace it with a breaker panel, usually alongside a 200-amp service, so the house can run modern loads. We look at the box and your plans and quote both in writing.
Yes. We pull the electrical permit from Media Borough, schedule the third-party inspection and walk the inspector through the job. The cost sits in your written quote.
You may not know until it fails. Water reached panels and low outlets across Delaware County in September 2021, and corrosion grows quietly. A safety inspection tells you what to keep and what to replace.
