Elektriliitumine

Elektriliitumine refers to the process of connecting a property or a facility to the public electricity grid. This is a necessary step for any new building or structure that requires access to electrical power. The process typically involves several stages, starting with an application to the local electricity network operator. This application details the power requirements of the property and its location.

Following the application, the network operator will assess the feasibility of the connection and may require a site inspection. If approved, a contract for the electricity supply will be drawn up, outlining terms, conditions, and costs. The physical connection involves extending the electricity network to the property, which might include installing new poles, underground cables, or a transformer if the required power demand is significant.

The final stage involves the installation of metering equipment at the property and the actual connection of the internal wiring to the grid. This work must be carried out by certified electricians to ensure safety and compliance with regulations. The elektriliitumine process can vary in complexity and duration depending on factors such as the distance to the nearest power lines and the required capacity. It is a regulated service, and the costs are typically borne by the applicant, although there may be specific regulations regarding the pricing of such connections. Once the connection is complete and approved, the property can receive a continuous supply of electricity.
