The Thomas Edison difference
A Nanticoke electrician from Thomas Edison Electric already works this Luzerne County city, ZIP 18634, home to about 10,653 people. Hunlock Creek sits 3.2 miles off, Plymouth 4.0, Glen Lyon 4.2, and Kingston, Wilkes-Barre and Mountain Top round out the area within Luzerne County.
Every electrician we send is a direct employee, not a subcontractor, and each one dispatches from home in a fully stocked TEE van. We're a family-owned, multigenerational company, licensed under PA075449 and fully insured. We answer 24/7, 365 days a year, holidays included, and put the price in writing before any work starts.
Knob-and-tube remnants, fuse boxes and 60-amp service are routine work for our crews, not a surprise.
Shared walls and older service drops get the same careful check as any other home.
No subcontractors, ever, just electricians who work for Thomas Edison Electric and drive their own stocked van.
We settle the price on paper before any tool comes out.
A tripped breaker at 2 a.m. still gets a licensed electrician, not a voicemail.
Every electrician passes a background check and trains regularly to stay current on code.
We're dedicated to building lasting relationships with every customer through exceptional service and guaranteed results.

Transparent pricing means written quotes with no surprises.
The typical Nanticoke home dates to 1946. Houses from that era often still carry knob-and-tube remnants tucked behind the walls, a fuse box instead of breakers, 60-amp service, and outlets with no ground wire at all.
We check the panel and trace the wiring on the first visit, since a fuse box this old limits far more than people expect. A fuse box becomes a modern breaker panel through circuit breaker repair and upgrades. Knob-and-tube segments get identified and retired, not simply capped and left in place.
City blocks and rowhomes bring their own wrinkles too, from shared walls to older service drops. We check the full path from the meter to the panel, not just the panel by itself. We also serve Plymouth, Glen Lyon and Hunlock Creek with the same crew and the same written quote.
A 1946 Nanticoke house was wired for a handful of lamps and a radio, not a modern kitchen. The panel and the wiring type both matter here.
A fuse box or a maxed-out 60-amp service becomes a modern breaker panel through circuit breaker repair and upgrades. Knob-and-tube segments get traced room by room and retired, not just capped off behind new drywall. Outlets with no ground wire get GFCI protection where a full rewire isn't the next step yet.
Once the panel has room, a home EV charger or a backup generator becomes simple to add. As a certified Generac dealer, we sell, install and service those generators too.
As a city, Nanticoke issues its own electrical permits. Pennsylvania's Uniform Construction Code sets the rules the same way it does everywhere else in the state. Rather than staff a full building department, most municipalities bring in a third-party agency to review plans and inspect finished work. Nanticoke follows that same pattern. We handle the filing and meet the inspector, so the process never becomes your problem.
PPL Electric Utilities supplies power across most of the city, with UGI Electric and Claverack Rural Electric Cooperative reaching a few pockets nearby. A service upgrade, especially one that adds a 200-amp panel, needs a coordinated disconnect and reconnect at the meter, and we build that into the schedule. A downed line or a citywide outage belongs to the utility to fix. Once power reaches your meter, everything past it is ours, any hour you call.
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!

Nanticoke Electrical FAQs
Not automatically, but it wasn't built for today's appliances, and the insulation degrades with age. We trace what's left, retire the sections that need it, and leave the rest safely isolated. Every recommendation comes in writing before we touch anything.
Yes. We answer calls around the clock, 365 days a year, holidays included. Electricians dispatch from home in fully stocked TEE vans, not from a distant yard. A Nanticoke call gets a real person, ready to work that visit.
Check your block first. If the outage is wide, that's PPL, UGI or Claverack territory, and they handle the repair. If your neighbors have power and you don't, the trouble is likely on your side of the meter, and that call is ours.
The panel type and the wiring both matter. A fuse box or a recalled panel needs replacing, and knob-and-tube segments need tracing before anyone assumes they're inactive. Our electrical safety inspection checks the whole system, quoted in writing.
