Connecting an installation to the electricity network involves documentation and procedures established by the relevant network operator. The required steps and documents depend on the project and applicable requirements. Electro Instal Constantin can assist with documentation related to the contracted work; technical connection approvals are issued by the competent network operator.
The legal steps to be taken to connect to the electricity network are as follows:
1. Submission of applications for connection to the electricity grid or for power surcharges (domestic and industrial consumers)
2. Obtaining the Technical Approval for Connection (ATR)
The Technical Connection Notice is the written opinion, valid only for a specific site, issued by the grid operator at the request of a consumer, on the possibilities and conditions for connection to the electricity grid.
3. Preparation of the technical file for the user installation
The user installation or “indoor installation” refers to the entire electrical installation existing in a person’s property.
This file should include:
the contractor’s declaration that the requirements of the technical connection notice are met , the implementation of the user installation on the basis of the technical project verified in accordance with the law, in compliance with the technical standards in force;
the minutes confirming that checks have been carried out and that acceptance has been obtained on completion of the work, with the appropriate results, test bulletins, etc.
Where appropriate, the user installation file may also include the following documents:
single-wire diagram of the user installation at interface level with the connection installation, connection station or main switchboard, specifying the protections provided for and their settings;
the diagram of the connection to the network for the use of own sources, approved by the network operator.
The file for the use installations is drawn up by an A.N.R.E. authorised electrician or by the executing company (certified by A.N.R.E.).
4. Execution of 0,23/0,4 kV electricity supply works
Actual execution of the electrical circuit installation works.
