How long will the process take?

It depends on the complexity of your new connection but if the application is for a Standard Connection as per WEL's Capital Contribution Policy you can expect your quote within five working days.

For non-standard connections it may take between six to eight weeks to provide your fixed price quote. This allows time for the design to be completed and a quote to be issued. This timeframe will vary if an easement is required. Will I require an easement?

Providing all relevant information at the start of the process will help ensure it is as efficient as possible.

Is there an application fee?

Typically we do not charge an application fee for Standard Connection Applications, but we may ask you to pay a non-refundable application deposit for Non-Standard connections.
