Remodeling or Changing Service

If you're adding or changing your electrical load, we need to know to make sure you get the power needed.

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.

How much will it cost?

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.

Conservation Rebates During Remodeling

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.

Where's the best place to place your meter?

PUD 3 must have access to the meter every month.
The meter base must be installed on the outside of the building, where it’s easy to get to.
Don’t put the meter base in these locations:
- Over 5 feet off the ground
- In a carport or other places that may be enclosed later.
- In the same area that your dog will be kept.
- Anywhere you want absolute privacy.

Don’t tamper with the meter:

Customers who have disconnected or reconnected their power without proper authorization and/or have tampered with the meter, or had their seals cut will be billed a minimum $100.00 tampering fee.

For goodness sake, don't tamper with the meter.

Customers who have disconnected or reconnected their power without proper authorization and/or have tampered with the meter, or had their seals cut will be billed a minimum $360.00 tampering fee plus actual costs.
