PECO is the primary utility here, but not the only one. PPL Electric Utilities and Met-Ed cover some outlying areas. The boroughs of Hatfield and Lansdale run their own borough electric systems. So the first question we ask about a service upgrade is who your bill comes from. That is who we coordinate the disconnect and reconnect with. Lines, poles and neighborhood outages belong to the power company. The meter socket, the panel and every wire inside are ours.
The typical Montgomery County home dates to around 1971. That era left three things behind: aluminum branch-circuit wiring and 100-amp panels that are now full. Two-prong outlets with no ground are common too. In towns from Glenside to Harleysville we see all three, often in the same house. They are fixable, and the fix usually costs less than people fear.
Then there is water. The remnants of Hurricane Ida caused severe flash flooding across the county in September 2021, with widespread outages. Submerged panels and wiring do not always fail right away. If your basement flooded, in Ida or since, have it inspected. We also serve Bucks, Philadelphia, Delaware, Chester, Berks and Lehigh counties.
