Called out to Danville for a service entrance issue. The homeowner noticed a burning smell near the panel and wisely shut everything off before calling us. When we inspected the main lugs, we found the aluminum service conductors had loosened over time, causing arcing and heat damage. We cleaned up the connections, applied fresh anti-oxidant compound, and torqued the lugs to proper specifications. This kind of problem can turn serious fast, so catching it early was the right call.

Completed junction box installation and conduit work at a commercial property in 19611. The building needed additional circuits run to new equipment in the mechanical room, so we installed a properly sized junction box and routed rigid conduit along the ceiling joists. All splices were made with approved wire nuts and the box was labeled according to code. Commercial jobs like this require attention to detail since inspectors look at everything. Thomas Edison Electric handles commercial electrical repair and installations throughout the Reading area.

Nothing beats a ceiling fan for year-round comfort, and this 18940 homeowner was ready for one in their bedroom. We shut down the circuit, removed the existing light fixture, and reinforced the ceiling box to handle the fan's weight. After assembling the motor housing and attaching the blades, our tech wired the unit and secured everything to the bracket. The pull chain gives easy control over both fan speed and the light. Looking to add comfort and cut energy costs? Book your fan installation with Thomas Edison Electric today.

Solar systems require specialized knowledge, and this Harrisburg home needed a checkup on their equipment. The setup includes a meter showing the "Caution Solar Electric System Connected" warning, an AC disconnect labeled for the solar tapbox, and a SolarEdge inverter handling the DC to AC conversion. We verified all connections at the disconnect, checked the inverter display for any error codes, and made sure the system was producing as expected. Solar adds complexity to your home's electrical, but it's worth it when everything runs right. Contact Thomas Edison Electric to learn more about electrical repair for solar-connected homes.

When this Pocono Lake homeowner noticed their electric bill had doubled without explanation, they called Thomas Edison Electric for answers. Our technician arrived to conduct a draw test on the service entrance, measuring how much power each circuit pulled. We checked the meter base, inspected connections at the weatherhead, and tested throughout the home for phantom loads or faulty equipment. The investigation gave them clear data on where their electricity was going. Call Now if unexplained energy costs have you puzzled.

Multi-unit properties need reliable metering, and this Newtown building required a complete three-meter setup. Thomas Edison Electric's crew mounted the meter bank securely to the exterior, then ran rigid metal conduit down to the service entrance. Each meter socket was wired to its respective unit's panel, giving the property separate utility billing. We coordinated with PECO for the final hookup and inspection. The installation passed on the first try, and all three units now have independent power monitoring.

Responded to an urgent call in Harrisburg after a homeowner discovered signs of an electrical fire behind their wall. The damage was obvious with heavy soot and burn marks radiating from the outlet location. We immediately shut down power to that circuit at the panel and carefully removed the blank cover to assess what happened. The wiring inside showed clear signs of arcing and overheating. After documenting everything, we removed the damaged wiring and installed new conductors along with a properly rated outlet. The wall will need drywall repair, but the electrical system is now safe.

Responded to an emergency call at this 19125 row home where the customer lost power to half the house. Inside the sub-panel, we found a mess of older wiring that needed attention. One of the breakers had failed completely and wasn't resetting. Our tech replaced the faulty breaker, reorganized the wire runs for better airflow, and tested every circuit to make sure power was restored throughout. These older Philadelphia homes sometimes have electrical systems that need extra care.

This Reading homeowner needed more circuit capacity for a workshop addition, so we installed a sub-panel fed from their existing main. The setup required running proper gauge feeders between the two boxes and ensuring the grounding was code compliant. We mounted both panels securely in the utility closet where they're easy to access but out of the way. Now there's plenty of room for dedicated circuits to power all those tools.
