Where to begin
The first thing you need to turn to when solving a complex connection issue is theory. First you need to calculate the power that the site and the house on it as a whole will consume. After the calculations, it is worth finding out whether there is a network of suitable power in the vicinity to which you could connect.
At the end, calculate the distance to the nearest connection point of the found network. Having a suitable network in the vicinity and these calculations, you can begin to prepare an application for connecting the site and go for permission to connect electricity to the organization that is responsible for your sector.

Conditions for connection
To connect electricity to the site, you first need to collect all the necessary documents and relevant permits from the organizations that deal with this. In order for the site to be connected to the network, you must apply for an agreement with the company supplying electricity. To do this, you can send a letter via mail or website (you need an account) providing a list of documents. If it is possible to visit a RES branch, then the contract can be concluded there.
In the application for connecting electricity to the land plot, you must indicate:
- Your personal data (full name, passport code and number, place of registration and residence).
- Address of the site for which connection is required.
- Reason for carrying out the work (construction of new facilities, increasing the size of a house already standing on the site, increasing the current power in the network).
- Amount of electricity consumed.
- Design deadlines.
- Information about the supplier who carries out the work.
- List of documents that are attached to the application.
- Date of preparation and signature of the person writing the application.
Application example Source vamnapolzu.ru The
list of additional documents must include a diagram of the site's electrical network, proof of ownership of the land for which connection is required, as well as a passport (copies certified by a notary) to verify the identity of the applicant. If all document processing operations are not carried out by the owner of the site, then a power of attorney is required to be attached to the remaining papers.
After obtaining permission to connect electricity to the site, you need to make a draft plan according to which the work will be carried out. To do this, you should contact an organization that is an energy supplier or a private office specializing in this issue. The network connection project includes a diagram and a text list of parameters. Visual display includes:
- Places where external networks should be.
- Location of meters with their characteristics.
- How will the cable be connected from the power lines (power lines) to the metering station?
- Grounding plan.
- Equipment display.

In the text part you need to describe:
- Characteristics of power supplies.
- Explanations of the schedule.
- Data on the equipment that will be powered from the network and its power.
- What cables will be used for connection.
- A single line diagram that shows the location of network nodes.
The project for connecting the site to electricity is made in two copies. One of them must always be with the energy supplier, and the second with the owner of the land on which it is made.
In some cases, the question arises of how to supply electricity to a site without buildings. In this case, the list of documents and the order of work will not change, but you will have to take this point into account when drawing up the plan. Also, the distance to the power line from the site should not be less than 10 m, and the height of the line for overhead wiring should not be lower than 6 m. The distance to trees and other obstacles should be taken into account, as it should be more than 2 m.

About documents
To obtain permission and further services of the company. You need to contact her with an application to connect the house with the following set of copies of documents:
- passport and TIN (taxpayer identification code);
- document on ownership of real estate;
- land ownership document;
- calculations for connecting the site to the network. (They must indicate in detail all power-consuming devices, as well as a calculation of consumer power);
- document confirming the construction permit. (If we are talking about a house that has yet to be built).
These documents are sent by registered mail to the address of the organization with which the business is being conducted. In particular cases, an organization may request the originals of a document from the customer. After processing the application, specially trained office specialists will create and calculate acceptable technical conditions for creating a house connection project.

The organization has the right to refuse connection and power supply to the site in the event that the network to which the applicant wants to connect is not suitable in terms of the calculated power according to the given calculation. Or the request to carry out the work will be too complex to fulfill and will cause difficulty for other consumers on the same network. For example, it will be necessary to open up the asphalt on the roadway to break the trench to the house.
The conditions contain basic information about the technical components of bringing electricity into the house, that is, information about the cable that will be laid from the network to the premises. After describing these conditions, you can begin connecting the site to the power grid.
Important ! The maximum period that, according to the law, an organization can request to fulfill the technical conditions for electrification of a site is up to two years from the date of submission of the application.

Creating a project and what should be in it
Having developed the technical conditions, you can begin to create a project for connection. The same office that you contacted earlier can do this, based on previous calculations. For design you will need the following data:
Electricity metering unit project. It must indicate the values of the input current and the voltage limiter installed to it.
Network cable connection plan. Its section from the general voltage network to the metering unit of the house.
Developed grounding project for the house and the site as a whole.
In cases where three-phase networks are carried out, all calculations that relate to the transformer used are needed.
Documentation with the approval of the service that is responsible for the network to which the site is connected.

Only after preparing a full-fledged plan and obtaining all permits to connect the site, you can proceed from theory to action.
How does the connection happen?
The organization for electrical networks assumes all responsibilities for wiring electricity outside the territory of the land plot. And that is, it lays a cable from the power network circuit, then the client’s ground and nothing more. The owner of the house will have to independently connect electricity inside the site from a point that in the future will become a metering center.
When considering options for how to bring electricity to a site, there are two main methods of connecting electricity:
Laying cables underground. In this case, a trench is dug from the buried network cable to the home panel. This method is considered more reliable, but costs more, because the price will include the trench itself.
Air laying. In case the cable extends from the pole into the house. The price is a cheaper option, but it cannot be called reliable, since a strong gust of wind or a car accident can damage both the cable and the pole.

Permission to connect electricity
After receiving technical specifications, the site is prepared for connecting electricity. To do this, supports are mounted and wires are pulled. An alternative option is to lay the cable underground. Regardless of the method, installation must be carried out in compliance with building codes and regulations provided for by law.
After installation work is completed, the land owner contacts the energy sales company and coordinates the visit of an employee to check the constructed system for compliance with technical conditions.
If the specifications are satisfied, the company employee connects the network. The minimum cost of the service is 550 rubles. The price may increase depending on the subject of the Russian Federation, the power of the connected network and the distance from the transformer to the site.

Connection procedure
Before submitting an application to connect a plot of land to electricity, you need to calculate the required power that all potential equipment on the territory will likely consume.
It is definitely worth taking into account the fact that in the future some equipment may be purchased additionally, so the power should be calculated with a margin.
Many people connect electricity to their garden plot only in the summer, without intending to use many electrical appliances.
However, if there are plans to apply to connect electricity to a plot of land for the construction of a permanent structure for the purpose of permanent residence, then the following possible additional electricity costs must be taken into account:
- connecting energy-intensive equipment for opening gates, barriers, garage doors;
- connection of automatic watering devices;
- connection of alarm systems and special devices to ensure the safety of residential buildings and territories;
- providing electricity to video surveillance devices in the occupied area;
- connecting equipment for heating water in the house or on the site (for example, a washing container);
- provision of light lighting on the site;
- providing electricity to additional buildings.
Pricing policy for connecting a site
Generally speaking, connection costs will include:
The price of materials, which completely depends on the distance from the house to the connection point and on the cable and its components that will be purchased for this purpose.
Electrical connection services requested individually. These include all calculations according to technical specifications, assistance in drawing up the project and the work itself carried out by employees. Also sometimes this includes payment for issuing documentation with connection permissions.
Basic connection services. Installation of poles, formation of a trench, installation of an electrical panel, etc.
Concluding an energy supply agreement with a supplier
At the time of 2020, approximately the following price trends apply:
The cost of obtaining technical specifications from electrical networks is 7,000 rubles. The price of installing a pole for introducing electricity will be approximately 25,000 rubles, if we take the Moscow region.

How to arrange and connect electricity for 500 rubles, see the video:
Connecting electricity to a private house from this pole will cost residents approximately 14,000 rubles. This depends directly on the price of a meter of cable that the home owner wants to install. The total cost of electrical installation work when wiring to the site is on average from 22,500 rubles.
The price also includes installation of an electrical panel and PUE grounding to ensure safety. All signatures and an agreed package of documents cost on average 8,000 rubles. The cost of an energy supply contract today ranges from 7,000 rubles. In general, it is not a particularly expensive process when compared in equivalent to the price of a plot or house.

What is required to connect
First of all, you will need a completed application for connecting electricity to the land, which should be submitted to the nearest energy supply organization.
Advice from experienced people: there is an opinion that for a more rapid response, it is more effective to submit an application directly to the regional department, which will transfer it to a lower organization in the territory and begin to monitor implementation.
If you like to read primary sources, then study the Decree of the Government of the Russian Federation No. 861 of December 27, 2004 - it details how to connect electricity to a land plot: what documents to collect, what actions to take and within what time frame.
