PECO is investing $20 million in and around the Lower Merion area as part of our proactive efforts to enhance the local electric distribution system for you and your neighbors.该项目将加强电力基础设施，以更好地抵御我们地区更频繁和更具破坏性的风暴，通过减少停电频率和无法避免的停电持续时间来为我们的客户提供更高的可靠性，并支持采用清洁能源资源，如太阳能和电动汽车。
We will replace all wires, cables, poles, devices, and transformers on the circuits associated with the Overbrook Substation, which will be retired following this work. 此外，还将安装被称为自动重合开关的新型空中设备。当出现问题时，例如树枝倒塌或雷击，自动重合开关会停止线路上的电力流动，并尽可能自动恢复电力。电线杆将进行更换以满足当前的行业标准——它们将比目前的电线杆更高。树木和植被将被清理到与费城电力公司设备保持安全距离的地方。间隙距离是以树木种类和电气设备类型位基础的，符合维持安全可靠电气服务的行业标准。This project requires vegetation work in Lower Merion, including tree work that we have identified on individual properties. Tree trimming and removal promotes reliability and safety by ensuring proper clearance and minimizing vegetation that could potentially cause a power outage.所有工作都将由费城电力公司工作人员和合格的费城电力公司承包商执行，如果必须在客户的物业上进行树木作业，我们将通知客户。PECO works with certified arborists and adheres to ANSI A300 standards when managing tree trimming and removal.
In anticipation of work beginning, qualified PECO contractor Davey Resource Group (DRG), will be conducting in-person consultations over the next several months beginning March 8 to review the required tree work on your property.
Tree work is scheduled to begin in Spring 2023 with construction to follow.
