Electrical Services in Bethlehem, PA
Electrical service upgrades are one of the most requested projects for older Bethlehem homes, especially on the South Side and in the historic district. Many of these properties still operate on 60-amp or 100-amp service that cannot support modern HVAC, kitchens, and electronics. We upgrade the entire service from the weatherhead down through the meter base, main panel, and grounding electrode system. New 200-amp service opens capacity for central air, electric vehicles, heat pumps, and home additions. Coordination with PPL Electric Utilities is handled by our team to keep the outage window short. Permits are pulled through the City of Bethlehem and inspections are scheduled on your behalf. Each branch circuit is reconnected with proper torque and labeled in a new panel directory. A walkthrough confirms every circuit works correctly before we leave.
EV charger installation has grown rapidly in Bethlehem neighborhoods like Saucon Valley, the West End, and Northeast Bethlehem. We install Level 2 chargers from ChargePoint, Tesla, Wallbox, Grizzl-E, and other major brands. A load calculation confirms your existing panel can support the new circuit, or we recommend a service upgrade if capacity is tight. Smart load management devices are available as a budget-friendly alternative to a full upgrade in some cases. Outdoor chargers are installed with weatherproof conduit, dedicated 240-volt circuits, and proper GFCI protection. Garage installations include clean conduit runs and mounting locations chosen for daily use. Our office handles the permitting process so you avoid the paperwork. Most residential installations are completed in a single day.
Hot tub wiring is a specialty service for Bethlehem homeowners adding outdoor spas to decks, patios, and backyards. Hot tubs require a dedicated 240-volt circuit, GFCI protection, and a properly placed emergency disconnect. We size the circuit based on the manufacturer’s specifications and the distance from the panel. Direct-burial cable or PVC conduit runs are installed at code-required depths and protected at transitions. The disconnect is mounted within line of sight of the tub at the proper distance from the water. Grounding and bonding requirements are followed exactly to protect bathers from stray current. Permits are pulled and inspections coordinated when required by the city. Final testing confirms the GFCI trips properly and the tub powers up correctly.
Whole house surge protection is increasingly important for Bethlehem homes filled with sensitive electronics, smart appliances, and HVAC control boards. Type 2 surge protective devices install at the main panel and shield every downstream circuit. Lightning strikes during summer thunderstorms and utility switching events both produce voltage spikes that can damage equipment in milliseconds. A single surge can ruin televisions, refrigerators, computers, and HVAC components in one event. Installation takes about an hour and provides a layer of defense that point-of-use surge strips alone cannot match. Quality devices carry warranties that often include connected equipment coverage. Pairing whole-house protection with surge strips for sensitive electronics creates the strongest defense. We install units rated appropriately for residential service.
Interior lighting installation transforms how Bethlehem homes look and function. Recessed LED retrofits brighten living rooms, kitchens, and basements while reducing energy use. Under-cabinet lighting, pendant fixtures, and dimmer-compatible switches are popular kitchen upgrades. Chandeliers and statement fixtures in dining rooms and foyers add character when installed at proper heights and on supported boxes. Older homes often need junction box upgrades to safely support modern fixture weights. Smart switches with neutral conductors are wired correctly so dimming and app control work as intended. Three-way and four-way switching is laid out for convenience in hallways, stairwells, and large living areas. Every fixture is mounted level and tested before we leave.
Electrical inspection services help Bethlehem homebuyers, sellers, and longtime owners understand the true condition of their electrical system. We evaluate the service entrance, main panel, grounding system, visible wiring, outlets, switches, and GFCI and AFCI coverage. Federal Pacific and Zinsco panels are flagged for replacement because of their documented safety issues. Aluminum branch circuit wiring is inspected for proper terminations and oxidation. A written report documents findings with clear priorities, helping with real estate transactions, insurance underwriting, and future planning. Many small issues found during inspection are inexpensive to correct before they grow into larger problems. Older homes especially benefit from a professional set of eyes on the electrical system. Honest reporting comes standard.
Emergency electrician service is available for Bethlehem residents facing dangerous conditions like sparking outlets, burning odors, water-damaged panels, or complete power loss. Our team responds quickly, isolates the hazard, and completes repairs safely. Trucks carry common breakers, wire, outlets, and panel components so most issues are resolved on the first visit. After-hours response is provided without inflated pricing or pressure tactics. Storm-related damage involving service masts and meter bases is coordinated with PPL when utility involvement is needed. Temporary power solutions can be arranged when repairs require more time. Honest assessments come first, with recommendations matched to the actual problem. Safety always drives the order of work.
Why Electrical Code Compliance Matters for Homeowners in Bethlehem, PA
Electrical code compliance protects your home, your family, and your financial investment. The National Electrical Code is revised every three years based on real fire and shock data gathered nationwide. Pennsylvania adopts these standards through the Uniform Construction Code, and the City of Bethlehem requires permits and inspections for most electrical work. Bethlehem’s older housing stock often contains wiring methods that were code-compliant decades ago but no longer meet today’s safety standards. Unpermitted electrical work is one of the most common reasons home insurance claims get denied after a fire. Real estate inspectors regularly flag DIY repairs, double-tapped breakers, missing GFCI protection, and undersized service entrances during property sales. Code-compliant work uses correctly sized conductors, proper grounding, approved materials, and AFCI and GFCI protection in the rooms where they are required. Permits create a documented record that benefits future buyers, appraisers, and insurance underwriters. Hiring a licensed electrician protects your homeowners coverage and avoids costly rework. Edinson Electrical pulls every permit, follows every code section, and signs off on work that meets the standard.

Prompt service, no B.S. Honest people doing honest work, and always very polite and personable. Completely satisfied with their service.
Had Erwin and Harold out for a second time to do more work in our home we are renovating. I have no complaints about this company, they are honest and give plenty of options to work with your budget. Respectful, understanding and very thorough explanation of their work. Highly recommend you get a quote from them before paying double to the larger companies!
Edwin was very informative and respectful. Quick and effective work. Very thorough and good at his job. He discovered that every outlet that was worked on previously by a unlicensed handyman were done incorrectly. My home could have burned down, thankfully i caled a professional. I would recommend him everytime
Erwin did a great job on the lights in are den he was here when he said he would and gave a far price for what he did.
Erwin did an awesome job! Super professional, on time, and really knows what he’s doing. Everything came out great, and he made sure it was done right. On top of that, he’s just a really nice, friendly guy—easy to talk to and made the whole process stress-free. Definitely someone you feel comfortable having in your home. I’d 100% recommend him to anyone looking for a reliable electrician!
Erwin and Harold were absolutely fantastic. Courteous and clean service. Very professional. Advised me on what was needed to bring my kitchen oven up to code and accomplished my installation quickly and same day. Estimate was equal to what I paid. Very honest workers and professional experience. 10/10! Will be calling them for everything in the future for electric. Amanda, the lady who I scheduled the appointment with was also friendly and professional and answered all my questions. Overall a fantastic company, I couldn't speak highly enough of them!
The team was wonderful. They went above and beyond to make sure that I was satisfied, even offering to help me with a few loose ends on other projects. Their reprices were fair and upfront with no hidden fees, and I never doubted the integrity of their work. I will be coming back to them for anything electrical in the future
Harold came in, was very proffesional. Fixed our outlet and panels in a timely manner and were very accomodating. Would reccomend.
The outlet wasn't working he came and fixed it quickly and was very respectful.
This is my first experience with Edinson Electrical Solutions. I was very pleased with their service and will use them for all my electrical needs in the future. They were very professional and respected my house. Thank you very much.
I have used Edwin a few times for my house and each time he is very customer oriented, shows up when he says, and does a fine meticulous job. I recommend him highly if you are looking for an electrician.,
Jr and Harold helped me with an electrical issue where I kept losing power in my bedroom and living room. They came out, diagnosed the problem quickly, and fixed it the right way. What really gave me peace of mind was their lifetime craftsmanship warranty. It’s great knowing the job was done properly and that they stand behind their work. Highly recommend them!
Erwin was amazing. We needed an entire new panel, it was waterlogged and he worked the same day doing everything over for us. He was so amazing that he even got us a pizza out of the kindness of his heart. I definitely want them any time I have any other issues. 10/10 would recommend.
Erwin is great at what he does he came through for me and my family during a snowstorm storm so if you have any electrical problems I recommend you give him a call
Great service. Quick efficient and very good customer service. Will definitely book with Edinson Electrical solutions again.
They truly came through for us. This wasn’t an easy project—our entire parking lot was without lighting—but their team handled it quickly, safely, and professionally. They diagnosed the issue, coordinated the work, and had everything fully operational in just two visits. We’re grateful for their efficiency and expertise.
The electricians(Erwin Harold and their crew) did a wonderful job. Erwin explained step by step in details on the things they were going to work on before they did the job. They accommodated everyone in the household especially our autistic son. With all the cosmetic work that had to be done, in the end,it looked like no damage to the house was even done. Thanks to them now we have permanent power instead of partial power. We will definitely recommend them to everyone.
Erwin and Harold from Edinson Electrical Solutions visited us to work on the dishwasher, the circuit breaker panel, outlets and possible installation of a new outlet box in the basement. Erwin was very thorough. He went through all the requirements of what needed to be done and provided options for us to pick. We wound up putting in a new outlet box for the dishwasher (which he diagnosed as needing replacement). He installed a new whole house surge protector at the circuit breaker panel. He fixed a few of the troublesome outlets. We decided not to install the outlet box in the basement at this time. What was impressive was the time he spent explaining the pros and cons of what needed to be done. I appreciated the explanations. They did an outstanding job for us and not was reasonable for the work that was performed.
Erwin and team were great! Provided multiple options for our project so we could decide what works best. It was a large project, upgrading 2 panels, removed 1 meter and went to 200 amps. Communication was great throughout and he made us a priority. We used Edinson for a previous project as well, we will continue to use them and would highly recommend them for a small or large project.
Harol y Jr. son electricistas increíblemente profesionales y amables. Se tomaron su tiempo para asegurarse de que todo estuviera bien y fueron honestos con nosotros sobre los precios. Nos ayudaron con todas nuestras dudas y nos brindaron un servicio excelente. Harol and Jr. are incredibly professional and friendly electricians. They took the time to make sure everything was okay and were honest with us about the prices. They helped us with all our questions and provided excellent service.
Erwin came out and was very professional. He explained everything and did not rush. I would absolutely recommend him to others.
Juan was excellent! He showed up on time, was very professional, and completed the job quickly and neatly. Great communication and reliable service. I’ll definitely call him again when I need electrical work done.
Erwin and Harold did an excellent job replacing many outlets and lights for our remodel. They also upgraded several switches for us. They were very respectful of our house, cleaning up after themselves as they worked. We will be calling them in the future for other work we will need to have done.
Erwin came during a same day emergency that required a readjustment and reinstallation of improperly connected wires connected from the ceiling to make sure the lights worked properly. He was professional and made sure everything stayed working properly. Totally would recommend! Five Stars!
Erwin came to fix an electrical issue I had with my lights not working in my bathroom. He was very flexible with when I was available and efficient in getting the issue resolved quickly and professionally. I would recommend this company 100%!
Erwin was amazing! We called when our circuits when being tripped and we didn't know why. He came and was professional and courteous. He explained everything he was doing and checked in multiple times so we knew what to expect. The job was bigger than he expected but he stayed calm and worked diligently until it was finished. He gave us multiple professional recommendations before he left for things we can improve our efficiency.
We were having some intermittent issues with power in our house. Erwin came out and checked everything out for us. He was great and answered all of our questions about the state of our wiring and helped us plan out future projects. The price was well worth an hour of his expertise, and they’ll be at the top of our list when we do start on renovations.
Amazing service! Erwin was extremely professional and resolved my issue quick! I would highly recommend.
they was fast and cleaned up. Showed and explained everything that happened. it was very pricey but they did a good job.
Erwin was great, I had a partial power in my room and my husband found him on Google he came right away to check and fix the problem.

They found some additional items to repair and checked and double checked everything. They were both very polite, responsible, thorough, as well as informative.

I had problems after all the rain we had with my GFI outlets outside. Edwin came in a timely manner and completed it neatly and correctly. They are both working perfectly and safely now. I highly recommend this company!
I live in an apartment complex where several units lost power after a tree came down during a storm on Father’s Day. It was pouring, and honestly, we thought we’d be without power for a long time. But Edinson Electrical Solutions showed up quickly and got right to work. They were professional, focused, and clearly knew what they were doing. It was impressive to see how they handled such a big job under tough conditions. Power was restored to all the apartments faster than we expected. Truly grateful for their dedication and the quality of their work.
We had an emergency when a tree fell and knocked out our power even on Father’s Day and during heavy rain. Harold and his crew from Edinson Electrical Solutions showed up fast, handled everything safely and professionally, and got our power back on with excellent work. In a stressful moment, they brought peace of mind. We highly recommend Edinson Electrical Solutions for their quality, responsiveness, and dedication!
I contacted Erwin for help with 2 sub panel installations at my residence and from the moment I called him to the moment he walked off my property it was an example of customer-first professionalism. If you want to have a quality job done, with a friendly, safe and professional electrical contractor, look no further. He handles everything from A to Z and does not consider the job done until the customer is satisfied. I cannot say enough positive things about my experience with him and his team. Outstanding service. If you choose this company, you won’t have any problems
I had a great experience with Edinson Electrical Solutions. They helped make my house much safer by upgrading all the smoke alarms, fixing some wiring issues with my baseboard heaters, and installing a electronic surge protector. Their work was very thorough and professional from start to finish. I’m extremely satisfied with the job they did and would definitely recommend them to anyone looking for honest, high quality electrical work.
Juan and his crew were very professional, clean and respectful of our home. They fixed a ceiling fan and installed all new smoke alarm / carbon monoxide detectors, efficiently throughout the house.
We recently purchased our forever home and spent hours searching for a highly reputable electrician to help us with a large project. Erwin is the epitome of professional; he came for the estimate and talked us through every viable option to make major upgrades to our VERY outdated knob and tube electrical system. He was very receptive to our input and made us feel like we put a plan together as a team. His dedication to his clients is very apparent as he followed through with all the work he said he would do within the timeframe he provided; not only that, but he went above and beyond to ensure that we were left feeling safe and secure before he wrapped things up. He completely alleviated all our initial concerns by the time the project was done and has remained in contact to make sure everything has continued running smoothly. It’s rare to find someone that genuinely cares about others in the capacity that he does with the skills to boot. Don’t just take my word for it; give him a call and I guarantee that you will have him on standby for all your current and/or future needs. Keep up the great work!!!
Honest, reliable and quick to respond. It doesn’t get better than Edison Electrical Solutions.

Their skill, professionalism, and customer-focused approach make them a standout in their field. I will definitely be using their services again for any future electrical needs. Thank you, Erwin, for a job well done!
Edwin was awesome. He showed exactly when he said he would and made sure the job was done. Perfect work.
Erwin not only fixed the initial problem that he was called for but probably saved our house from a potential fire hazard by identifying a faulty wired main breaker and evidence of water leaking into our main electrical panel. Erwin is knowledgeable, considerate, and very personable. We would not hesitate to call him again.
Very professional and knowledgeable about the trade. He took the time to explain many alternatives and what his recommendations were for what I needed and provided many quotes to meet my budget. Honest, top tier company.
A very knowledgeable person. He explained in great detail the process and why is important to use a whole house surge protector. Highly recommended!
Extremely helpful and focused on quality and safety. Attention to detail and very professional. Would definitely hire again!!
Prompt, excellent service from an experienced and professional technician. Highly recommended
I’m very impressed with Edinson Co, specifically having worked with Erwin to estimate and assess an older century house’s electrical system. The process was smooth, thorough and actually enjoyable. Erwin is a down to earth guy and will have no problem keeping you aware of what needs to be done work wise, albeit very kind, funny and friendly to talk with. Never once did I feel pressured or unsure about any of his work. The process was simple enough to any homeowner; going off a general inspection and digging even deeper into whatever pops up on the report is exactly what Erwin did. His report was thoroughly informative after taking time checking for GFI circuitry and for k&t. If you have an older house and are interested in finding out what kind of projects you might encounter, Erwin definitely will shed some light on the situation. I am so grateful Erwin was referred to me, being that finding an honest and dedicated electrician is golden nowadays. Thank you so much Erwin!
Erwin arrived on time. The problem was fixed. Very professional. I would call them again
