Basic Service Connection
This includes applying for a new industrial electricity connection and installing necessary components like transformers, poles, and wiring.
- Standard cost ranges from ₹2 lakh to ₹5 lakh for loads up to 100 kW
- Covers connection fees, cabling, service box, and meter installation
- Cost depends on distance from the nearest substation and load capacity
Transformer and Load-Based Upgrades
Larger power requirements often need dedicated transformers and higher-capacity infrastructure to handle machinery and industrial operations.
- Installation of a dedicated 100 kVA to 250 kVA transformer: ₹6 lakh to ₹12 lakh
- Load enhancement charges from the utility provider apply if upgrading capacity
- High-voltage connections (above 250 kW) may require additional safety clearances
Site-Specific Factors
Costs can vary based on terrain, utility company policies, and whether overhead or underground cabling is used.
- Underground cabling adds ₹1,000 to ₹1,500 per meter
- Overhead lines are more affordable but require easement clearance
- Remote sites may need pole extensions or mini-substation installations
