Business Update

I want to take a moment to update everyone on scheduling for the coming weeks.

Due to an unexpected and serious medical emergency that required major surgery, I am currently focused on recovery as advised by my doctors. While this has temporarily slowed operations, I’m making steady progress and plan to get back to work as safely and responsibly as possible.

📅 Estimates will begin again in March
🔧 Service calls are expected to resume early April, pending continued recovery

I truly appreciate everyone’s patience, understanding, and support during this time. Your messages and well-wishes have meant more than I can say, and I’m looking forward to getting back out there and taking care of your electrical needs soon.

Thank you for sticking with me — I’ll keep everyone updated as things progress.

— Bryan

On this lovely Sunday, with temperatures at 18°, a snow squall rolling through, and your electrical service has dropped a leg… what do you do?

You call Shockingly Good Electric, of course. ⚡❄️

We temporarily repaired the existing meter socket to restore power while we built a brand-new service. Despite the bitter cold, we replaced the old 60-amp service with a 200-amp Siemens meter/main, getting this customer safely and reliably back online.

Because we’re authorized under PPL’s Fast Track program, there was no waiting on the utility—we’re permitted to make direct secondary connections, resulting in significantly faster power restoration.

When power matters most, response time matters more.

🔌 We specialize in emergency power restoration.
⚡ Wired Right. Shockingly Good.

Another Safe and Code-Compliant Upgrade Complete in Berwick ⚡️

Today we replaced several old 60-amp cotton-insulated copper services that had long outlived their time. We upgraded them with new Milbank multi-gang meter banks and Square D 100-amp disconnects, relocating the meters 5 feet away from the gas meters to meet the latest clearance requirements.

Out back, the detached garage/apartment had what appeared to be an abandoned 60-amp SEU service — but it was still energized! We safely removed it and installed a 200-amp Siemens self-contained meter/main combo, complete with 2½" rigid conduit above the roofline. The old setup allowed someone to literally reach out from the porch and touch live connections — a serious safety hazard that’s now fully corrected.

As we were wrapping up, a PPL Electric troubleman arrived in response to a tamper alarm sent by the meter. Because Shockingly Good Electric is part of the PPL Fast Track program, we’re authorized to perform these service upgrades safely and directly. After verifying our credentials, dispatch cleared the alarm — and we were given the all-clear to finish up.

⚡ Late Night Emergency Power Restoration ⚡

We responded to an emergency call last night after PPL Electric removed a customer’s meter due to a heat alarm. Upon removal, they discovered the bottom left jaw of the meter socket had melted.

📞 Call came in at 5:00 PM
🚐 Our crew was on site by 6:30 PM

We completely removed the burned service and rebuilt it with a brand-new Siemens 135A meter base and new service riser. Two new ground rods were installed outside, and the interior panel was properly bonded to the water system.

A prior panel upgrade had been completed at this location, but unfortunately it was not code compliant. We corrected all issues and ensured the installation met the current electrical code.

This job was unique as there was concrete block behind the siding, adding complexity to the installation. We also moved the meter down to the proper height per utility specifications.

✅ Service rebuilt and ready by 1:00 AM
✅ Inspection completed by 8:30 AM
⚡ Now awaiting emergency reconnect from PPL

At Shockingly Good Electric, we’re proud to deliver safe, code-compliant, and reliable service—day or night. We specialize in emergency power restoration when you need it most.

Here we replaced a 100-amp service with a new 200-amp service through the PPL Fast Track program. This program lets us make permanent connections directly to the hot PPL secondary using the same connectors the utility uses. The result? A much shorter outage window for the customer, with no need to coordinate with the utility or wait on a truck roll.

We also upgraded the 100-amp Generac automatic transfer switch/disconnect to a 200-amp version to properly match the new 200-amp service.

Inside, we removed the old 24-space, 100-amp Cutler Hammer panel and installed a clean 42-space, 200-amp Square D QO panel—complete with a whole-home surge protection device for added peace of mind.

Now this customer is fully set for their new hot tub install from Artesian Pools & Spas—or any other load growth they may have in the future. ⚡💧

Received a Phone call at 6:30 pm on Friday night for a customer with only some of their outlets and lights working.

We did a thorough diagnosis on the properties electric system. We found the seu jacket on the meter risor completely dry rotted and well past its lifespan. The zinsco service disconnect had also failed and the one leg burned completely off on the back of the stab lok breaker. (These panels / service disconnects were recalled for this exact reason)

Installed temporary jumpers so the customer would have power throughout the night.

We came back the next day on Saturday and completely removed and rebuilt the failed service.

The customer service was completely restored by 5:30 p.m. without a PPL Utilities truck roll. If this repair was done by a non fast track electrician it would be a multi-step process of having the utility cut the power, having the hired electrician build the service, hire a certified third party electrical inspector and have them pass the electricians work and put it in the PPL system, then finally wait for PPL to come out and reconnect the drop. That could potentially be a multi-day process on the weekend.

We are a certified Fast Track Contractor for PPL Electric Utilities.

This means we are authorized to upgrade or repair your electric service without a PPL Truck roll saving weeks if not months in some cases. This includes breaking the seal and removing the meter.

We make the connection directly to the PPL triplex drop that is preexisting on your house so there is no waiting for upgrades or repairs. In most instances all upgrades or repairs are completed on the same day.

We have our own meter seals provided by PPL, once work is completed your meter is resealed and ready for years of reliable service. A Fast Track work order is put in the PPL contractor system to notify them of the completed work.

If you ever experience a breaker that trips more than twice, don't keep resetting. If you do, you risk burning your house down.

Here you see multiple locations where mice chewed off the insulation of the wiring, some locations had the bare copper conductors touching each other. Every time you reset the breaker it arc flashes and tripped back off.

We visually inspected all wiring in the basement and removed all defective sections to make a permanent repair.

This customer was notified by PPL Electric that their meter base was overheating.

We went and built the new service the same night and then transferred the service the next day. The customer had a very minimal power outage with this process.

We are big fans of leaving a service loop in the branch circuits, you never know when a circuit is going to need to be relocated.
