ALERT: Material Shortages and Supply Chain Crisis Causing Delays
The electrical industry is facing a nationwide supply chain crisis. While full payment for a customers proposal will secure today's pricing, it does not guarantee that material is available when the customer is ready. Workorders released material packaging will be prioritized by material availability, amount/type of material required, and customer readiness. All of this means that construction schedules may be severely delayed. Read more about our Material Shortages and Supply Chain Crisis here.
This includes remodeling, changing out your electrical panel, or changing the type of electrical service to your property. Before you or your electrician do the work, please fill out an application for altered service. Depending upon the complexity of the job and number of applications we’re working on, this may take between two and eight weeks, so plan ahead.
You can find a list of PUD 3's Engineering Specifications & Policies and our Service Rules & Regulations in the Document Archives.
PUD 3’s engineering staff is specially trained to design a safe, legal, and cost-effective plan to connect your new home or business to PUD 3’s clean, reliable electric grid. Because there are so many variables, we do not give “rough estimates” for specific jobs.
All customers must submit an application for electrical service in order to receive a cost estimate.
This handout may offer a better explanation.
PUD 3 may have rebates available for upgrading the energy efficient of your home or equipment during a remodel. Call the Conservation Department at 360-426-0777 to learn more.
NOTE: If your remodel requires a permit to bring the building up to code, some rebates may not apply.
