Dear Customer,

We are contacting you about an upcoming project occurring in Tredyffrin Township that will enhance the local electric distribution system. This project is a $325 thousand infrastructure investment in your area to help withstand more frequent and damaging storms, improve reliability by reducing the frequency of outages that cannot be prevented, and support the adoption of cleaner energy resources such as solar and electric vehicles.

What you’ll see during this project:

  • New equipment, including pad-mount transformers will be installed to replace existing underground transformers.
    • These devices are necessary to reduce electric voltage throughout neighborhoods and require several feet of clearance to allow for future maintenance.
    • Pad-mount transformers enhance reliability, are safer, and decrease restoration times compared to underground transformers.
  • The pad-mount transformers will be installed on residential property, as close as possible to the current underground equipment that is being replaced.
  • If a pad-mount transformer will be installed on your property, you will be contacted directly.
  • A machine will be used to install new conduit as well as new underground electrical cable throughout your neighborhood.
  • Any impacted portions of yards or streets will be restored.
  • Work will occur along Wisteria Dr, Wellfleet Rd, and Hayfield Rd.
  • Construction is estimated to begin early July 2025 with an estimated completion date of late August 2025.
  • Work will be performed by PECO crews and qualified PECO contractors.
  • We have developed a plan to minimize direct customer impact as much as possible and to complete the project in a safe and timely manner.

Crews may need to temporarily interrupt service to safely complete some of this work. We will work with local residents to ensure they are informed in advance of our activities and any planned interruptions. To ensure you receive all outage updates, please confirm that your phone number is accurate in our system through MyAccount at peco.com/myaccount or by calling PECO at 1-800-494-4000.

If you have any questions regarding the details of this project and how it may impact you, please contact Patricia Haug, Customer Liaison, at Patricia.Haug@exeloncorp.com.
