FAQs

Your questions about electrical services in Rittenhouse Square, Philadelphia – answered

  • Philadelphia requires permits for many types of electrical upgrades or significant rewiring.

    Additionally, condo associations may have their own approval processes.

    Always confirm your project meets both city code and your building’s specific rules before starting any work. Give us a call, and we’ll discuss your project and handle any necessary permits for you.

  • We strive to respond to local emergencies as quickly as possible, often offering same-day service to ensure your electrical issues are resolved safely and efficiently.

  • There are often energy efficiency incentives and rebates available for homeowners, such as discounts on LED lighting, smart thermostats, and EV charger installations. Contact us, and we’ll help you explore the latest programs and savings opportunities.

  • Many buildings in Rittenhouse Square date back several decades (or even a century), and electrical work may have been updated in stages.

    We can perform a thorough inspection – examining panel capacity, wiring age/condition, and safety devices like GFCI or AFCI – to ensure everything meets modern NEC (National Electrical Code) standards and local regulations.

  • In a condo setting, you often share overall building power infrastructure.

    First, check with building management or the condo association to confirm if there are any capacity restrictions or guidelines for upgrading. Then, we can assess the size of your existing panel (often 60–100 amps in older units) to see whether upgrading to 125 or 200 amps is feasible.

  • Yes – large appliances like washers, dryers, and dishwashers often require dedicated circuits. In condos, panel space and overall electrical capacity can be limited. Before installing, confirm with the condo association what’s allowed, and give us a call to ensure the circuit is properly rated and won’t trip breakers or overload your panel.

  • Before beginning any electrical project, consult both your condo association and the property management firm. They usually have guidelines on everything from work hours to the types of upgrades allowed in individual units. In many cases, you’ll need to submit plans for approval and ensure any licensed electrician you hire meets the building’s insurance and licensing requirements. Always follow these steps to avoid fines, delays, or issues with your neighbors.

  • Landlords generally must ensure electrical systems are safe and up to code. This includes providing functioning GFCI outlets in required areas, maintaining breakers and panels, and addressing any wiring hazards. Check Philly regulations and your building’s bylaws to confirm specific landlord requirements.
