Abington Electrical Services
From emergency repairs to full rewiring, GEM handles every electrical need in your Abington home.
Power outages, faulty wiring, outdated panels. Whatever electrical challenge you face, GEM’s licensed electricians have the training and equipment to resolve it. We bring decades of experience to every Abington home we serve, ensuring your electrical systems operate safely and efficiently.
Electrical Repair
When electrical systems fail, fast repairs restore safety and function.
Circuits that won’t reset. Outlets that stopped working. Lights that flicker constantly. Electrical failures disrupt your daily routine and create potential hazards. GEM’s Abington electricians diagnose electrical problems quickly and repair them right. We identify what’s wrong, explain your options clearly, and get your power back to reliable operation.
Emergency Electrical
Electrical emergencies demand immediate professional response.
Total power loss. Burning smells from outlets or panels. Sparking wires. These situations require urgent attention from a licensed electrician. GEM provides emergency electrical service in Abington 24 hours a day. Our electricians respond quickly to dangerous electrical conditions, diagnose the problem, and restore safe operation to your home.
Electrical Maintenance
Regular electrical maintenance prevents problems before they start.
Connections loosen over time. Breakers wear out. Surge protection degrades. Without periodic inspection, small issues become expensive emergencies. GEM provides electrical maintenance in Abington that keeps your system operating safely. We inspect panels, test circuits, check connections, and identify developing problems while they’re still easy to fix.
Electrical Installation
New electrical work requires precision and expertise.
Adding a home office. Installing a hot tub. Upgrading to electric vehicle charging. These improvements need dedicated circuits installed to code. When electrical components reach the end of their service life, replacement prevents failures and safety hazards. GEM provides electrical installation in Abington for new equipment, fixtures, and systems. We handle permitting, run new circuits correctly, install replacements that deliver reliable performance, and ensure everything operates safely from day one.
Standby Generators
Power outages during storms shouldn’t leave your home in the dark.
Coastal storms and nor’easters knock out power across Abington neighborhoods. When the grid goes down, a standby generator activates automatically, keeping your lights, refrigerator, heating system, and sump pump running. GEM installs, repairs, and maintains whole-home generators for Abington homeowners who need reliable backup power.
- Generator Repair: Generator won’t start? Running but producing insufficient power? Making strange sounds? Our technicians diagnose and repair generator issues so your backup system is ready for the next outage.
- Generator Replacement: Aging generators lose efficiency and dependability. If yours struggles to start, runs inconsistently, or can’t support your current electrical load, replacing it with a modern unit provides better performance and reduced fuel consumption.
- Generator Maintenance: Regular maintenance keeps generators dependable. We check fluids, test batteries, inspect electrical connections, run load tests, and verify automatic transfer switches operate correctly. A well-maintained generator starts reliably when you need it.
- Generator Installation: GEM provides generator installation in Abington with systems that connect directly to your electrical panel and engage within seconds of power failure. We help you choose the appropriate size for your home and manage all installation, permitting, and testing.
Lighting Services
Good lighting changes how you use and enjoy every room.
The right fixtures in the right places make your home more functional, comfortable, and attractive. Poor lighting strains your eyes, wastes energy, and makes spaces feel smaller than they are. GEM’s electricians design and install lighting systems that fit how you actually live, from task lighting in kitchens to ambient lighting in living spaces to security lighting outside.
- Outdoor Lighting: GEM installs outdoor lighting in Abington to guide visitors safely, deter intruders, and highlight your home’s best features. We use weather-resistant fixtures that perform through Massachusetts harsh seasons.
- Indoor Lighting: GEM provides indoor lighting installation in Abington including recessed lights, pendant fixtures, under-cabinet LEDs, and dimmer switches. We install lighting that matches your style and improves how each room works. Energy-efficient options cut electricity costs without sacrificing brightness.

EV Chargers
Charge your electric vehicle overnight in your own garage.
Public charging stations work for occasional top-ups, but daily drivers need reliable home charging. A Level 2 charger adds 25 to 30 miles of range per hour, meaning a full charge overnight instead of waiting at a public station. GEM provides EV charger installation in Abington for all vehicle makes and models. We assess your electrical panel’s capacity, run dedicated circuits, and mount chargers where they’re most convenient for your parking setup.
Smart Home Services
Control your home’s systems from your phone or voice commands.
Smart thermostats, automated lighting, video doorbells, connected locks. These devices make life more convenient and can reduce energy costs. But they need proper electrical infrastructure to work reliably. GEM installs and integrates smart home equipment, ensuring devices communicate properly and your electrical system supports them. We help Abington homeowners modernize without the frustration of troubleshooting connectivity issues.
Carbon Monoxide & Smoke Detectors
These devices save lives, but only when they work properly.
Carbon monoxide is odorless and invisible. Smoke detectors give you minutes to escape a fire. Dead batteries, expired sensors, and poor placement turn life-saving devices into useless plastic. GEM installs hardwired smoke and CO detectors with battery backup throughout Abington homes. We place detectors according to code requirements, interconnect them so all alarms sound together, and ensure your family has the warning time they need.
Outlets
Modern homes need more outlets in more places.
Two-prong outlets can’t accept grounded plugs. Outlets in kitchens and bathrooms need GFCI protection. Home offices need enough receptacles to avoid daisy-chaining power strips. Outdoor outlets need weatherproof covers. GEM installs, replaces, and upgrades outlets throughout Abington homes. We add circuits where you need more capacity, install GFCI and AFCI protection where code requires it, and replace worn outlets that no longer hold plugs securely.
Electrical Panel Upgrades
Your panel controls every circuit in your home.
Older panels can’t handle modern electrical demands. Too many appliances on too few circuits means tripped breakers, flickering lights, and potential fire hazards. Panels with outdated technology like Federal Pacific or Zinsco breakers pose serious safety risks. GEM provides electrical panel upgrades in Abington to meet current code requirements and handle today’s electrical loads. We also repair existing panels, replace faulty breakers, and add circuits when your home needs more capacity.
Heat Cabling Systems
Prevent ice dams and frozen pipes with electric heat cables.
Massachusetts winters create ice dams on roofs that damage shingles and cause leaks. Pipes in exterior walls and unheated spaces freeze and burst. Heat cables solve both problems. GEM installs roof and gutter heat cables that melt ice before it builds up, plus pipe heat cables that keep water flowing through cold snaps. Proper installation and controls ensure cables run only when needed, keeping energy costs reasonable.
Surge Protector Services
One lightning strike or power surge can destroy thousands in electronics.
Computers, TVs, appliances with circuit boards, HVAC systems with electronic controls. A surge lasting milliseconds can fry them all. Power strips offer limited protection for individual devices, but surges can enter through any wire in your home. GEM installs whole-home surge protectors in Abington at your electrical panel, stopping surges before they reach your devices. We also install point-of-use protection for sensitive equipment that needs extra defense.
Rewiring & Wiring Installation
Old wiring can’t handle how we use electricity today.
Original wiring in older Abington homes was designed for a few lights and a radio. Aluminum wiring from the 1970s creates fire risks at connections. Even homes from the 1990s may have undersized wiring for today’s electronics and appliances. GEM provides rewiring services in Abington safely and with minimal disruption. Whether you need a single room updated or whole-house rewiring, our electricians work carefully around existing finishes and bring your home up to current electrical codes.

Abington Electrical FAQs
Why are my lights flickering?
Flickering lights in Abington homes can be caused by loose wiring, a failing bulb, or an overloaded circuit. Older housing stock is especially prone to this issue. If it happens frequently, it’s best to have a licensed electrician inspect your system to prevent potential safety hazards.
What causes circuit breakers to trip?
Breakers trip when too much electricity flows through a circuit, protecting your home from overheating or electrical fires. In many Abington homes, undersized panels can’t handle modern electrical demands. Common causes include overloaded outlets, faulty wiring, or a malfunctioning appliance.
What causes an outlet to spark?
A brief spark when plugging something in can be normal, but frequent or large sparks may indicate damaged wiring or a loose connection. Abington’s older homes with aging wiring are more susceptible. Have a licensed electrician check it right away to ensure your outlet is safe.
How long do electrical systems last in Abington?
Electrical system lifespan varies depending on the type and maintenance frequency. Older wiring may still function but often needs updating to handle modern loads safely. A licensed electrician can assess your specific situation.
Can LED lights save Abington homeowners money?
Yes, LED lights use significantly less energy and last much longer than traditional bulbs. For Abington homeowners dealing with high Massachusetts electricity rates, LEDs can noticeably lower bills while reducing the need for frequent replacements.
