Meet your designer
SMUD will assign an engineering designer for your project, typically within five days after receiving your application.
Your engineering designer will:
Connect
Be your main point of contact for your project
Plan
Address your project's electrical requirements and construction schedule
Assess
Determine if civil improvements are needed before SMUD construction can begin
Need civil improvements?
Civil improvements may include trenching and installing conduit,
boxes and pads for SMUD’s electrical cable and equipment.
If civil improvements are required:
Your SMUD engineering designer will provide you with a Commitment Package that explains the requirements and your responsibilities.
You'll need to schedule a pre-construction meeting with a SMUD inspector, who will provide direction for your installation of the required civil improvements.
All civil improvements must be completed before SMUD can begin actual construction of your project.

Time to go to work!
Once all required documents are submitted and approved, your engineering designer will complete the final job design and determine the cost of the work.
Contract and
payment letter
You will receive a project quote
and contract letter from SMUD.
It will include instructions for
approving the contract and
making a payment.
Here's what happens next
Schedule
After we receive your approval contract, any required fees, and after all other holds have been removed, SMUD will schedule construction of your project. You will be notified by email that the job is progressing to construction.
Construction
SMUD's construction work is performed. This includes all electric facilities and equipment except the meter, which will be installed after the panel is inspected by your local agency.
Inspection
Your local agency must inspect and approve your electrical panel before SMUD completes its work. Local agencies typically notify SMUD one business day after they approve the work.
Power on!
SMUD will install the new meter, connect or install the service wire and energize your service, typically within seven business days of the electrical panel inspection approval.
