New and additional power supply
Apply for an electricity connection
Eskom is strategically committed to connecting both existing and new customers to the national power grid as quickly as possible, thereby helping them to implement their long-term business plans or, in the case of the residential sector, helping households to move into their new homes.
- A self-build connection project enables you to get connected to the national power grid much faster.
- Moreover, it allows you to switch on and power your new or expanded business operations much earlier.
- A customer undertaking one self-build project.
- A customer undertaking multiple self-build projects at multiple locations and at different times.
- Multiple customers undertaking one self-build project (as in the case of a development).
Follow this checklist to ensure that you provide Eskom with the necessary information and the required documentation to expedite and process your self-build connection and distribution infrastructure application.
