The first step toward energizing your new service is to fill out an

Application for Electric Service.

If you are using a contractor, please check with them before completing an application.
Some local contractors handle the application process on your behalf.

The $800 New Service Fee includes a permanent 200 amp meter socket (a 320 amp is available for an additional $250), which can be picked up from the SCEC office.

Be prepared to submit a site plan with your application to expedite energizing your service.

Your electrician/contractor should know the proper procedures for preparing your site to be energized. Forms they may need are available below.
