Electrical service requests

PLEASE SELECT A WORK TYPE
1. Adding new service
When there is no existing electrical service at the premise and you would like to bring in service either temporarily or permanently.

2. Upgrading a service
If you are changing the size of the service or if you would like to switch between overhead and underground service. This also includes moving the location at the same time as doing either of these options.

3. Adding equipment to an existing service
If you would like to add additional meters to your property, such as adding a meter for a basement apartment, or if you would like to switch to net metering.

4. Performing maintenance at the premise
This includes changing the location where the service enters the building, changing the panel, requesting to isolate the service to complete electrical maintenance (like installing a transfer switch), or to isolate the service for non-electrical maintenance (like structural repairs on a building).
