May 2025
Dear Customer,
In September 2024, you were sent a letter regarding PECO’s work to upgrade and install new equipment to modernize and enhance the local electric infrastructure. Due to unforeseen circumstances, the start of construction has been delayed and is now scheduled to begin early June 2025. The project is expected to be completed in late October 2025.
We are contacting you about an upcoming project occurring in Hatboro, Upper Moreland, and Horsham Municipalities that will enhance the local electric distribution system. This project is a $1 million 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.
About the project:
- We will be upgrading and installing new, innovative equipment, including new poles and tree-resistant aerial wires.
- Advanced devices will be installed that can stop the flow of electricity if a problem occurs and automatically restore electricity where possible.
What you’ll see during this project
- Work will occur along Moreboro Road, N. Linden Avenue, W. Monument Avenue, Blair Mill Road, Hatboro Avenue, and Newington Drive.
- All 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.
Tree work has been completed. Work on electrical equipment, including poles and wires, is scheduled to start early June 2025. The project is expected to be completed in late October 2025.
Crews may need to temporarily interrupt electric service to safely complete some of this work. We will work with customers 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.
