3 ) Request your first connection

Request a new meter now even if you don't have a confirmed start date yet - this reduces delays later on when you're ready for service to begin.

  • Click the green "New connection" button and enter the address & meter details.

  • Remember to add Home Owner info and an estimated closing date to save yourself time and hassle later on. You can change these details anytime.

Then we do all the work for you...

If you asked for an ESI-ID (meter number), we’ll notify you once it's assigned, plus when an estimated installation date is provided, and so on.

Note: when you request a Temporary meter, we also pre-request the Permanent ESI-ID in advance to reduce delays later on. The permanent meter won't progress beyond the status "ESI-ID issued" until you request that service begins. Learn more about statuses

Finally, transfer to the Home Owner

Remember to enter the estimated closing date & Home Owner contact info so we can help

You can change the date or home owner info at anytime - or you can just close the account if you don't have anyone moving in right away.
