Our business is to provide quality workmanship at a reasonable price, as we believe that "Powered By Excellence" is the key to our success.

Our Story

When the developers of the Moshulu, a 4-masted sailing ship turned into a commercial restaurant docked on the Delaware River in Old City Philadelphia, needed an electrical contractor, they came to Academy for all electrical design, engineering, and complete installation of electrical systems for a fully functioning restaurant. Mr. Marinari was asked to personally design and engineer all of the exterior lighting for the ship to include mast lighting, up lighting for rigging, and outline lighting for sails. Over the past 20 years, a picture of the Moshulu "Lit Up" has been used extensively in their ad campaigns throughout the country. If you have an electrical project that requires special attention, contact Academy Electric.
