Service entrance work at this 17104 property involved inspecting the weatherhead and service drop connections after the homeowner noticed sparking during a storm. The cables coming from the utility pole connect at the weatherhead before running down through conduit into the meter. We found some wear on the drip loops and tightened everything up. The outdoor security light nearby was also checked since they mentioned it flickering. Loose connections at the fixture base were the culprit there. Both issues are resolved and the homeowner feels a lot safer now.

Responded to a 19602 home where the customer reported a burning smell near their panel. Inside this Siemens box, we found a loose connection at the 100-amp main that had started to arc. The bus bar showed some heat damage, but we caught it early enough. After tightening all the lugs and checking every breaker connection, the system tested safely. Situations like this remind us why regular panel inspections matter so much.

Ran dedicated electrical wiring to a new water heater at this 19152 residence. The plumber had just finished installing the Rheem unit, and the homeowner needed us to handle the electrical hookup. We pulled the orange-jacketed cable from the panel through the basement ceiling, secured it along the joists, and made the final connections at the water heater. Proper wiring ensures the unit runs safely and efficiently for years to come. Want to learn more about electrical repair for your water heater or other appliances? Contact Thomas Edison Electric.

Meter bases take a beating from weather over the years, and this Newtown home needed a fresh one. We pulled the meter, disconnected the old base, and mounted a new Milbank unit on the siding. The service entrance cables were reconnected to the lugs, and we verified tight connections throughout. PECO came out to reinstall their digital smart meter and restore power. Everything reads correctly now, and the homeowner has peace of mind knowing their service entrance is solid for years to come.

Our tech ran diagnostics on a washing machine circuit at this 19147 residence. The customer said the washer kept shutting off mid-cycle and they weren't sure if it was the appliance or the electrical. We clamped on the meter and got a solid 122.1 volts at the outlet, which confirmed the circuit was delivering proper power. Turned out the washer itself needed service, but at least the homeowner knew their electrical was fine. When appliances act up, call now to have your electrical repair diagnosed by a pro.

Added recessed lighting to a basement family room in Reading that was being converted into usable living space. The homeowner wanted better illumination without losing headroom, so we mounted LED can lights between the exposed joists. We ran new circuits to handle the load and positioned each fixture to eliminate dark spots across the room. The space went from dim storage area to a bright, inviting hangout spot for the whole family. Ready to brighten up your basement?

Adding outlets where you need them makes a huge difference in daily convenience. This 18940 homeowner wanted another receptacle in their room, so we cut a new box opening in the drywall right next to the existing outlet. Using the nearby circuit, we ran wiring through the wall cavity and installed a new work box. The orange tester confirmed proper wiring with correct hot, neutral, and ground connections before we finished up. Once the cover plate goes on after drywall repair, this spot will have double the plug-in capacity.

Smart home upgrades are becoming more popular, and this Harrisburg customer wanted in on the convenience. We installed two WiFi-enabled dimmer switches alongside a standard paddle switch, all housed in a clean three-gang plate. The smart dimmers let the homeowner control their lights from a phone app or voice assistant, which they were excited about. Wiring these up takes a bit more care since the smart switches need a neutral connection, but we had everything working and synced up before leaving. Ready to modernize your lighting?
