Engineer Staking
The staking engineer will visit your site, inspect the service entrance wiring and draw up a work order for the installation of electrical service and the installation of a meter. In some situations the engineer will need to meet with you at the site. In that case, he will call you to make an appointment. When the engineer has completed the work order, it is forwarded to the construction department for scheduling.
Easement Form
If we must install a power line across another person’s property to reach your property, we must have a notarized right of way easement from the owner of the property that we are crossing. Download this Electric Right of Way Easement Form and have it completed by the property owner, then return it to our engineer.
Line Construction
The construction foreman schedules all jobs on a first come-first serve basis according to area, to maximize the efficiency of our work crews and get your power connected just as quickly as possible.
Meter Set
When our construction crew has connected the service wiring to your service entrance, they will install a meter and turn the power on. If no one is home, they will usually leave the main outside breaker in the off position.
