We are responsible for electricity connections in Hawke's Bay, Rotorua and Taupo.
Our New Connection process offers a range of electrical connection services, including:
- Establishing electricity connections to new properties.
- Planning and delivering electrical reticulation and connection for subdivisions and commercial developments.
- Establishing Builder’s Temporary Supply (BTS).
To request an electrical connection you will need to engage an electrician and complete our online new connection NC1 form.
