Miri came here within an hour of me calling,and installed a new sensor flood light system for my garage within a half an hour. He was very polite and cleaned up after himself. I would highly recommend this company to anybody in the area.

I threw a circuit breaker causing me to lose my microwave, stove and refrigerator. I could not get the breaker to reset. I called for emergency service. Jurgen on the line told me how to reset the breaker. Everything now works fine. Highly recommend Golden Electrics. Thank you Jurgen, you are absolutely wonderful! You saved my refrigerated food. Highly recommend Golden Electrical Services.

This is the only electrician I've ever had that didn't charge me for coming out! The issue turned out to be just a tripped breaker. They fixed it and showed me what they did. They were very courteous and helpful. I will definitely contact them again if I have electrical issues.

Requested an outdoor 240v receptacle installation. Jurgen and his team are superb - they are respectful and considerate of the house, and the work was precise and clean. They also answered all of my elementary questions, which is super helpful for a non-electrician such as myself. We’ll keep Golden Electric Service on speed dial for us, friends, and family. Highly recommend!

I called for an electrical emergency at my business on a weekend and getting an emergency appointment was quick and easy. The 2 technicians who arrived were professional and friendly and were able to fix the problem in under 2 minutes. I expected to be charged a premium for a Sunday call, but instead they said there was zero charge for the call since it was a quick and easy fix for them. Glad I found this company and will be using their services for all my future electric work.

Owning an electric vehicle (EV) in Philadelphia comes with its own set of challenges and opportunities. We understand how important it is for you to have a reliable, safe, and efficient EV charging setup right at home or your business.

Philadelphia’s older homes, especially in neighborhoods like Fishtown and Chestnut Hill, often need electrical updates to handle the demands of an EV charger without constant breaker trips or flickers. We’re here to guide you through everything, from picking the right charger to navigating PECO‘s quirks and local permit rules, ensuring your installation fits seamlessly with Philly’s unique electric landscape.

Types Of EV Chargers Available In Philadelphia

EV chargers come in different types, and the right one depends on your home’s electrical setup and how quickly you want your vehicle charged. Some options are slower, some are much faster, and a few are better suited for public stations than residential use. Here are the most common charger types you’ll see around Philadelphia:

• Level 1 Chargers: These plug into a standard 120-volt outlet and charge slowly, making them best for light, occasional use.
• Level 2 EV Chargers: These run on 240 volts and are the most popular choice in Philly homes because they charge overnight and pair well with typical electrical systems.
• DC Fast Chargers: These provide very fast charging but require heavy power and are usually found at public stations, not homes.
• Tesla Chargers: Many Philly homeowners choose Tesla Wall Connectors for reliable, fast charging tailored to Tesla vehicles.
• Portable Chargers: Handy for on-the-go use but not ideal as your main everyday charging setup.
• Wireless Chargers: These are emerging but still uncommon in Philadelphia homes due to cost and limited availability.

Whatever charger you choose, we install trusted brands and make sure everything meets Philadelphia’s electrical codes and PECO requirements.

Benefits Of Installing An EV Charger At Home

A home charger gives you dependable power right in your driveway, making daily EV use a whole lot simpler. Here are the advantages of having an EV charger at home when you want easy, everyday charging.

EV ownership in Philadelphia is growing fast

More Philadelphians are switching to electric rides as the Eagles lead in green initiatives and city incentives pop up. EVs aren’t just a trend here: they’re becoming a standard.

Public charging isn’t always reliable or safe

Finding a working, safe public charger can be tough. Many spots near iconic places like the Art Museum or Reading Terminal Market are busy or outdated. Having your own charger avoids the hassle.

Level 2 home charging is 5–10× faster than a wall outlet

Plugging into a regular outlet is slow, room for improvement in a city where time is precious. Level 2 chargers power your EV much faster, meaning less waiting and more driving.

Convenience of overnight charging

Charge while you sleep and wake up ready to go. No more detours for a charge or worrying about if you made it home with enough juice after snagging a cheese steak in South Philly.

Lower long-term charging costs

Electricity in Philadelphia tends to be cheaper during off-peak hours. Home chargers let you maximize savings by charging overnight, avoiding unpredictable PECO rates during the day.

Increased home value and appeal for future buyers

Installing an EV charger adds a modern perk that Philly buyers love, especially in neighborhoods like Northern Liberties or Chestnut Hill where green living is popular. Your home stands out.

Factors To Consider Before Installation

Before installing an EV charger, it helps to look at a few important details to make sure everything runs safely and smoothly. Philadelphia’s older homes and local regulations can affect the setup, so checking things early prevents headaches later. Here are the main factors to think about:

• Your electrical panel may need an upgrade if your home was built before the 1950s.
• We check for any PECO restrictions to make sure your setup meets local requirements.
• Your charging habits, like whether you plug in overnight or rely on solar during the day, help determine the right charger.
• Philadelphia’s hot summers and snowy winters mean your charger may need weather-rated protection or a sheltered installation spot.
• The city requires permits and licensed electricians for EV charger installations, and we handle all paperwork and inspections for you.

These simple checks help ensure your EV charger is safe, reliable, and ready for everyday use.

Philadelphia Local Incentives And Rebates For EV Chargers

Programs from PECO offer rebates to reduce upfront costs, and the city supports green energy through various grants. We’ll help you navigate these options, ensuring you don’t miss opportunities specific to Philly’s environmental initiatives. Our team is familiar with the paperwork and can bundle incentives into the installation process, helping you save money while contributing to a cleaner city. Charging your EV without overpaying? That’s how we like it.

Maintaining Your EV Charger For Optimal Performance

Your EV charger doesn’t need much attention, but a little maintenance helps it stay in top shape through Philadelphia’s unpredictable weather. Keeping it clean and checked regularly means smoother charging and fewer issues down the line. Try these quick tips:

• Clear snow, leaves, and dirt from around the charger if it’s installed outside.
• Check the charging cable for cracks, wear, or loose connections.
• Keep the charger protected from heavy rain and extreme heat when possible.
• Have a licensed electrician do a yearly check-up to catch issues early.
• Pay attention to any power hiccups in your neighborhood that may reset the charger.

These small steps help your charger stay reliable no matter the weather or season.
