At Empowered Electric, we specialize in the professional installation of customer-owned power poles. Whether you’re adding power to a new property, upgrading an overhead service, or extending service to remote locations, our experienced team ensures a seamless process from start to finish. Here’s what you can expect when you choose us for your power pole installation.
Our Standard Installation Process
- The Pole:
- We typically install 35-foot poles, which are buried deep into the ground to ensure stability and safety.
- This process requires heavy machinery, such as excavators and bucket trucks, to properly position and secure the pole.
- Site Access Requirements:
- Because of the equipment involved, we require clear access to the installation site for heavy machinery.
- This includes sufficient space for trenching, pole placement, and operating bucket trucks safely.
- Trenching for Power Lines:
- In addition to pole installation, we provide trenching services to run power to new locations or connect to an existing electrical service.
- Our team ensures the trenching is performed efficiently and meets all safety and regulatory requirements.
Coordination with Electrical Authorities and Utility Companies
Installing a power pole involves more than just placing it in the ground. It requires careful planning and coordination with the electrical authority having jurisdiction (AHJ) and the utility company. Here’s how we handle it:
- Planning: We work closely with the AHJ to ensure all plans meet local electrical codes and standards.
- Permits and Approvals: Empowered Electric handles the permit application process, ensuring everything is properly documented and approved before installation begins.
- Utility Coordination: We collaborate with the utility company to schedule the final hookup and energization. This includes coordinating with linemen squads to ensure everything is connected safely and efficiently.
