The Thomas Edison difference
A Waynesboro electrician from Thomas Edison Electric is on call around the clock, every day of the year. We cover ZIP 17268 in Franklin County, along with Rouzerville, Zullinger and Quincy close by. Our electricians live in the region and drive fully stocked TEE vans out from their own homes, not a distant yard.
We are a family owned, multigenerational company, licensed in Pennsylvania under PA075449 and fully insured. Every job starts with a written quote, so the price is settled before any tool comes out. If we run late for your appointment, we waive the dispatch fee. Call 215-227-7000 any hour, weekends and holidays included.
Many Waynesboro homes built around 1956 still carry a fuse box, knob-and-tube remnants or 60-amp service. We replace and retire what needs it, not just patch around it.
Every electrician on the job is a direct employee who dispatches from home in a fully stocked TEE van, never a subcontractor sent in from somewhere else.
Whichever utility serves your meter, we coordinate the disconnect and reconnect for a panel or service upgrade.
You get a written quote up front, and if we run late for the appointment, the dispatch fee comes off your bill.

Waynesboro's population is 11,047, in the ZIP 17268 corner of Franklin County, with Rouzerville, Zullinger and Quincy all close by. The typical house here dates to 1956, so knob-and-tube remnants, fuse boxes, 60-amp services and ungrounded outlets are still common finds behind the walls.
Our electricians are direct employees, not subcontractors. They dispatch from their own homes across the region in fully stocked TEE vans, so a repair visit usually finishes the job instead of starting a second one.
Met-Ed serves most of Waynesboro, while a handful of properties toward Mont Alto sit on that borough's own municipal system instead. We confirm which one applies to your address before scheduling any service or meter work, then coordinate the rest so the timing works.
The typical Waynesboro home dates to 1956. Houses from that era often still have knob-and-tube wiring remnants tucked into walls or attics, along with fuse boxes instead of breaker panels. A 60-amp service was standard then, and today's homes ask for a lot more.
We start most older-home visits by checking the panel and the service size. A fuse box or 60-amp panel usually gets replaced with a modern breaker panel sized for how the house runs now.
Knob-and-tube remnants get traced and retired, not just capped off and left behind. Ungrounded outlets get a real ground or GFCI protection, especially in kitchens, baths and anywhere near water.
Once the panel and wiring are solid, plenty of Waynesboro homeowners add what a 1956 house never had, like a home EV charger on its own circuit or a standby generator for the next outage.
Waynesboro Borough issues electrical permits under Pennsylvania's Uniform Construction Code. Like most Franklin County municipalities, it works with a third-party inspection agency rather than running its own building department. We pull the permit, schedule the inspector and walk the job through start to finish, all as part of the written quote you approve.
Met-Ed serves most Waynesboro addresses, though a few properties toward Mont Alto sit on that borough's own municipal electric system instead. Either way, the split works the same. The utility owns the wires and the meter, and handles a downed line. We own everything from the meter into the house, 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!

Waynesboro Electrical FAQs
Yes. We answer calls in Waynesboro every hour of every day, holidays included, and send a licensed electrician who lives and works in the area. They drive a fully stocked TEE van from home rather than a distant yard, so most repairs finish in one visit. Call 215-227-7000 when the problem starts.
It depends on its condition and what has been added to it since 1956. Knob-and-tube was built for a much lighter load than modern homes carry. Once insulation covers it or a newer circuit ties into it, the risk goes up. We trace it fully and retire what should not stay live.
Check your bill or your meter first. Met-Ed serves most of the Waynesboro area, but Mont Alto Borough runs its own municipal electric system for addresses inside that borough. Before we schedule a disconnect or reconnect for any upgrade, we confirm which one applies to your address.
In almost every case, yes. A fuse box or 60-amp panel from a 1956 build has no trouble being replaced with a 200-amp breaker panel, which leaves room for a heat pump, an EV charger or a generator transfer switch. We size the new panel to the house, not just to code minimums, and put the price in writing first.
