Frequently Asked Questions

  • How Much Do Electrical Re-Introduction Services Cost?
    The cost of electrical re-introduction can vary significantly. We recommend contacting a qualified electrician to assess your specific situation. Our team can determine if re-introduction services are necessary and provide an accurate estimate for any required repairs.
  • How Do I Know If I Need Electrical Re-Intro Services?
    You likely need a re-introduction of service in Philadelphia, Bucks, or Montgomery County, PA, if your electrical service has been disconnected by the utility company. This can happen for a few reasons: safety hazards (if your utility provider identifies any electrical hazards in your home's wiring that violate National Electrical Code requirements, they may disconnect your service to prevent fires or shocks — hazards may include incorrect wiring, outdated electrical panels, cracked or worn covering on outlets, a faulty or recalled distribution breaker panel, and more), non-payment (if you haven't paid your electricity bill, the utility company may disconnect your service), or new construction or renovations (if you've had major electrical work done on your property, some power companies require a service inspection and re-introduction of service before they turn your power back on — a complete service inspection involves checking all aspects of your home or commercial building's electrical system).
  • What Is Included in the Reintroduction of Service?
    A reintroduction of service includes an examination of parts such as: service head, meter socket, panel, sub-panel, service cable, structural integrity, service disconnect, circuit breakers, grounding, bonding, and other service equipment. The electrical underwriter will ensure that all components are in working order and are securely attached to the building.
  • What Is Required from a Home or Property Owner Before a Re-Introduction Inspection?
    Current NEC code requirements state that you should be on the property at the time you have scheduled for inspection. In order to get your home or business prepared, you must make sure your inspector is not obstructed, so we recommend being there early. For safe inspection, all objects must be cleared from the egress. This means clearing out the garage, basement, front door, and rear door, as well as unlocking the yard gate.
  • What Electrical Services Do You Provide?
    In addition to the re-introduction of service and electrical inspection for local homes and businesses, our electrical company also specializes in: generator inspection, electrical underwriting, emergency electrical services, commercial electrical services, and more.
  • What Makes A-1 Electric Stand Out From Other Companies When It Comes to a Reintroduction of Service?
    A-1 Electric is the only electrical company that is certified in every county throughout Pennsylvania, meaning they can perform a reintroduction of service or another electrical inspection anywhere in Delaware County all the way up to Erie County.
