The Thomas Edison difference
Need a North Wales electrician? Thomas Edison Electric's crews are our own employees, never subcontractors, and each one dispatches from home in a fully stocked TEE van. North Wales is an incorporated borough of 3,440 people in Montgomery County, covering ZIP codes 19454 and 19455, with West Point, Gwynedd and Gwynedd Valley all close by.
Most homes here date to 1943, so fuse boxes, 60-amp services and knob-and-tube remnants still turn up behind the walls. PA075449 is our state license number, insurance is current, and someone answers the phone 24/7, 365 days a year. The number is 800-380-6800.
19454 and 19455 get the same crew, same pricing, same response.
North Wales issues its own permits; we manage the paperwork and the inspection.
Knob-and-tube segments still carrying power get found and replaced with grounded copper.
Where one is still in service, it becomes a right-sized breaker panel in the same visit.
Every North Wales electrician works for us, not a subcontractor, dispatching from home.
Nights, weekends and holidays included, with a waived dispatch fee if we run 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.
North Wales packs two ZIP codes into one small borough, 19454 and 19455, and both get identical service from us. Being incorporated also means the borough runs its own permit process rather than routing through a township, something we handle on your behalf either way.
Behind that administrative detail sits ordinary 1940s housing stock. Attics and basements are where we usually find knob-and-tube segments still tied into the circuit, and we trace each one before deciding what stays and what gets replaced with grounded copper. A fuse box, where one is still in service, tends to come along for the same visit.
North Wales' electricians work out of their own homes across Montgomery County, direct hires, never subcontracted.
Tracing old wiring is the job we get called for most. We start in the attic and basement, where knob-and-tube runs are easiest to reach, and follow them into the walls only where a run is still live. What we retire gets replaced with grounded copper, fished through the same openings.
From there, a lot of visits turn into a panel conversation. Circuit breaker upgrades replace an aging fuse box or an undersized main, and electrical safety inspections are a common request before a North Wales home sale closes.
Being an incorporated borough, North Wales runs its own permit process for electrical work, applying the same statewide Uniform Construction Code as everywhere else in Pennsylvania but through its own third-party inspector rather than a neighboring township's. We handle the application and stay for the inspection either way, no extra step for you.
On the utility side, PECO Energy Company serves the borough. Any service change requires a scheduled meter disconnect and reconnect, which we arrange directly with PECO. A downed line or a street-wide outage is PECO's repair; anything past the meter is ours to fix, any hour.
Our Pennsylvania and New Jersey experts are ready to resolve your electrical woes.

Mike from Thomas Edison Electric replaced our out-of-service-life whole-house surge protectors and repaired a lighting fixture for our deck. He did an excellent professional job. He didn't try to sell us things we didn't need. I highly recommend Mike.

Absolutely thrilled with our electrician Dennis! He was very knowledgeable and polite. Made this process very easy and stress free. We had two light fixtures put in along with an exhaust fan, cleaned up after and everything. Highly recommend this company and their electrician!

North Wales Electrical FAQs
The borough is split between 19454 and 19455 for postal purposes, but it makes no difference to us. Either ZIP gets the same electrician, the same pricing and the same 24-hour availability.
Existing knob-and-tube that is intact and unaltered can remain, but any run that has been spliced, buried in insulation or shows damage needs attention. We trace what is live and replace it with grounded copper.
Not usually. The process runs on the same timeline as a neighboring township's, just through the borough's own inspector. We handle the filing either way.
A Thomas Edison Electric employee, always, dispatching from home in a fully stocked TEE van. We are never subcontracted out. Call 800-380-6800 any time, day or night.
