Before Install
Capacity Before Installation
New fixtures and appliances add load to a panel that was sized decades ago. We check available capacity before quoting the work, so a lighting plan does not become an emergency panel upgrade three months later.
- Available panel capacity checked first
- Dedicated circuits where code requires
- Permits filed and inspections met

Schumann Electric transformed our outdated electrical system. The team was professional, efficient, and went above and beyond to ensure everything was perfect. Highly recommend!

I had a great experience with Tom and his partner. They were professional, timely, responsive, and helped quickly switch out some circuit breakers that continued to trip. They also added in surge protection to mitigate power glitches that are common to my area.
Amanda Marsteller
Homeowner | Philadelphia, PA
We had an excellent experience with Tom’s technician who installed 2 brand new ceiling fans in our house as well as a new lighting fixture in our kitchen. He was fast yet thorough and made sure we were completely satisfied with the work before leaving, offering to handle anything else we needed.
Brian Brown
Homeowner | Philadelphia, PA
Very Good Electrician – I had Schumann Electric out now I think for the 4th time in the past couple years. I will not use anyone else. This time it was to wire up our new hot tub. They are always on time and the job was completed as agreed.

Installation Questions
Frequently Asked Questions
What homeowners ask before adding anything to an existing house.
Do I need a permit for electrical installation?
Swapping a fixture for another in the same spot does not require one. Adding circuits, moving a fixture to new wiring, or altering the panel does, under the Pennsylvania Uniform Construction Code. We file the paperwork and meet the township inspector so you never have to handle it.
Can you install new wiring where none exists?
Yes. Fishing cable into finished rooms is routine work for us, whether the route runs through a joist bay, an attic, or a basement ceiling. We tell you before starting where access will be needed and how the opening will be closed.
Will installation work damage my ceiling?
Rarely more than one small opening, and often none at all. Recessed housings and fan boxes are cut to size, and we plan the cable route to avoid extra holes. Anything we do open is discussed with you first and left ready for paint.
Can I supply fixtures for you to install?
Please do. Many clients choose their own fittings, and we install them to manufacturer specification. We will tell you honestly if a fixture is too heavy for its intended mount or if the driver will fight your existing dimmer, before you commit to buying.
How far ahead should I book an installation?
Two to three weeks suits most planned installations, and longer if a permit is involved. Small additions often fit sooner. If you are working to a renovation schedule, call early,y and we will slot the rough-in against your builder’s dates.
Do you schedule installation around other trades?
Regularly. We coordinate rough-in before drywall and return for trim-out once painting is done, which is the sequence that keeps costs down. Give us your project timeline, and the electrical phase will not be the one holding everyone else up.
