Smooth Sailing

Here's a step-by-step guide on getting electric service to your development.

Submit these items to our commercial work order specialist:

1. Subdivision plat indicating:
• Lot dimensions
• Street addresses
• Side(s) of street where entrance lights will be stubbed out (if any)
2. Average square footage of homes
3. If natural gas will be installed
4. Water plan (electric transformers can't be set on property lines with fire hydrants)
5. Notice of intent
6. Erosion, sedimentation and pollutant control plan (if development is larger than 50 acres)

The work order for installing the electric service will not be added to our construction list until we receive a signed contract and aid-in-construction payment.

Notify the Walton EMC scheduler at 770.266.2520 10 days prior to paving to allow time for an underground conduit to be installed where our lines cross streets.

Before electric service construction can begin:

1. Curbing must be in and backfilled
2. Lot numbers must be painted on curbing or pins must be set for property lines
3. Shoulder must be to grade
4. Water and sewer lines must be marked
5. It's preferable that the streets be paved. However, construction can begin on a soil-cement base with a guarantee that paving is scheduled as soon as our construction is complete.
