If you are interested in determining the approximate cost to extend power to a property, please fill out the Ballpark Estimate Form and email it to ConstructionApplications@Trico.coop. In the application please include: your name, phone number, property address, the Assessor Parcel Number (APN) or Tax ID, and a site plan or map indicating the approximate meter location.
Once we receive your email, a New Service Technician may contact you requesting additional information. Otherwise a completed form with approximate cost will be returned to you within 5-10 business days.
The Ballpark Cost tool is to be used as an approximation for construction estimates to new residential line extensions, excluding existing service upgrades and relocations. The estimate is calculated using standard assumptions and the distance provided and is NOT intended to determine the design, route, or how facilities will be installed on your property. The actual line extension design will be determined after a Trico Designer has met with you on-site.
For underground estimate purposes, the member is responsible for all trenching and backfill, conduit installation, and equipment basement/pad installation (See Residential Line Extension Guide).
Other factors that may affect costs include, but are not limited to:
