The Thomas Edison difference
Searching for a Montgomeryville electrician? Thomas Edison Electric's crews are direct employees, never subcontractors, dispatching from their own homes in fully stocked TEE vans. Montgomeryville, ZIP 18936, borders Colmar and Lansdale, with North Wales, Gwynedd, Hatfield and West Point all within a few miles, inside Montgomery County.
The area's 13,388 residents live mostly in homes built around 1987. That means copper wiring throughout, but panels sized for a smaller electrical load than today's households actually draw. We carry PA license PA075449, full insurance, and answer 24/7, 365 days a year. Call 800-380-6800, and expect a written quote before any work begins.
A 1987 Montgomeryville panel was sized for its era. We recalculate the load before adding a heat pump, an EV charger or a home office.
Heat pumps draw more than the furnace they replace. We confirm the panel and breaker can carry it before installation day.
As a certified Generac dealer, we install standby generators with an automatic transfer switch for the next outage.
PECO or a borough electric department, whichever is on your bill, we schedule the meter work with them.
No subcontractors. Montgomeryville crews dispatch from home in fully stocked TEE vans.
PA075449, 4.8 stars on Google, and a waived dispatch fee if we are ever late.
We're dedicated to building lasting relationships with every client through exceptional service and guaranteed results.

Montgomeryville homes from 1987 came with copper branch wiring and grounded outlets from day one. So the usual worries about aluminum wiring or knob-and-tube mostly do not apply here. The limit instead is the panel itself. A 100 or 150-amp panel covered a house from that era well. Then central air, a heat pump, a finished basement office and a car charger all started competing for the same capacity.
PECO Energy Company is the utility across most of Montgomeryville. A handful of streets near Hatfield and Lansdale bill through those boroughs' own electric departments instead. We check which one applies before scheduling any meter work, and we coordinate the disconnect and reconnect either way. Outages on the lines are the utility's; everything from the meter in is ours.
We dispatch electricians from their own homes throughout Montgomery County, in vans already stocked for the job, not out of a distant yard.
The most requested job is a load recalculation ahead of a big addition, a heat pump or an EV charger. When the math does not work, a 200-amp panel upgrade usually clears it, done in a single visit with the utility's meter work scheduled around it.
Home EV charger installation comes next, always on its own dedicated circuit rather than sharing one with the garage or workshop. Dedicated circuits also cover home offices, hot tubs and workshop tools that a 1987 electrical plan never accounted for. For the next outage, we install and service standby generators as a certified Generac dealer.
Montgomeryville is not an incorporated borough, so the township reviews electrical permits under Pennsylvania's Uniform Construction Code. As in most of Montgomery County, that usually means a third-party inspection agency rather than an in-house building department. We pull the permit and schedule the inspection as part of the job, no extra step on your end.
PECO Energy Company is the primary utility, though homes near the Hatfield or Lansdale borough lines sometimes bill through those municipal systems instead. Check the name on your bill; it tells us who to schedule the disconnect and reconnect with for a panel or service upgrade. Line damage from a storm is the utility's repair. Inside the meter, day or night, is ours.
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!

Montgomeryville Electrical FAQs
Most start at 100 or 150 amps, which was standard for the era. Add a heat pump, an EV charger and a finished basement, and 200 amps is often the better fit. We calculate the actual load before recommending an upgrade.
Rarely. Copper branch wiring from 1987 is the safe, expected standard, unlike the aluminum wiring found in older parts of the county. Issues here are almost always about panel capacity, not the wire itself.
Yes. Whether PECO or a borough electric department serves your address, we schedule the meter disconnect and reconnect as part of the job. You do not have to call the utility yourself.
Yes, every one of them. They dispatch from their own homes in fully stocked TEE vans, not a subcontractor's truck, and answer 24/7, 365 days a year.
