"Hired True Modern Electrical Services Plus to add an outlet in my garage. He was very quick to respond to my request and schedule a time to come out and give me an estimate. Throughout the whole process, he was responsive in answering my questions regarding the project and permitting. Then he did a wonderful job on the install and I am very happy with his work. Would definitely hire him again for my future electrician needs."

"

Jim was very professional, friendly and informative. He knew exactly what to do and did all the jobs quickly without disturbance.

We initially hired Mr. Electric do the 200 amp panel upgrade but quickly realized what a great electrician we had so we asked for a quote to do other jobs in our home. The quote was very fast and Tom worked with us to get it in our hands and worked around our schedules to get the work completed. We are really pleased at all the work and will gladly recommend Mr. Electric to all. We will always use this company for all things electrical!

Electrical questions, answered by experts

In York, common mistakes include starting electrical work without securing the proper permits from the City of York, using incorrect wire sizes, and neglecting grounding requirements. Overloading circuits and attempting DIY repairs without proper knowledge can lead to safety risks and code violations. To avoid these issues, always follow local electrical permit guidelines and consult a licensed electrician familiar with York's regulations.

Helpful?

For electrical projects in York, PA, use copper wiring for durability and safety, and select NM cable for most indoor residential applications. Ensure all materials are UL-listed and meet the National Electrical Code as enforced by the City of York. Local electrical supply stores can help you find code-compliant products. Always confirm with your contractor that supplies align with York's local electrical permit standards.

Helpful?

Before starting electrical work in York, verify your property's zoning with the City of York Zoning Office and gather detailed project plans. Submit a complete permit application to the Building and Electrical Inspection Division, including all required documentation. Confirm your electrician is licensed in PA. Scheduling inspections early and understanding the permit review timeline can help you avoid delays and ensure your project meets local electrical code requirements.

Helpful?

In York, most electrical projects—including new wiring, service upgrades, and circuit installations—require an electrical permit from the City of York Building and Electrical Inspection Division. You must submit detailed plans and load calculations for review. Permit fees are based on project scope, and approval can take up to 15 business days for residential work. Always consult the city's building department to ensure compliance with local code requirements.

Helpful?

After electrical work in York, schedule periodic inspections to check for loose connections, tripped breakers, or signs of wear. The City of York recommends testing GFCI outlets and circuit breakers at least twice a year. Inspect outdoor wiring after severe weather and ensure all work remains compliant with local electrical permits. Proactive maintenance helps prevent hazards and keeps your electrical system safe and efficient.
