New Service Information
Step 1
The first step in obtaining electric service is to contact our Member Service
Department by phone at 903-874-7411 or in person at our office at 3800 West
Highway 22 in Corsicana. Our Member Service Representatives (MSR) will
help get your new account set up and discuss deposits or other service
requirements.  At this time we will work with you to collect information and
determine your service needs, whether it be to transfer an existing electric
service location into your name, or if you need a new line constructed.  We
can also provide payment options such as bank draft or credit card.
"Your Rights as a Customer"

Save time on account setup!!
Download a copy of our Customer Information Form and Membership Form
and complete them before you call us.  If you need new power line
construction you will also need a Right-of-Way Easement Form.
These
forms can be faxed, mailed or emailed into our office along with the
appropriate basic fees although all legal, signature required forms will
need to be mailed into the office.
What are the fees?
The basic fees are a $10.00 membership fee, a $90.00 connect fee for
residential services or a $97.43 connect fee for non-residential services.  
Deposits may be required and should be discussed with a MSR, although a
letter of credit from a like utility can be presented in lieu of a deposit if the
account has a good credit rating.
Step 2
Once you have applied for service, and it is determined new construction is
needed at your site, contact one of our Staking Technicians for information or
to set up an appointment to meet at your site. Our Staking Technicians can
advise you on the following:

  • the placement of electric equipment necessary to provide
    service;
  • locations of other utilities that the electric lines need to cross;
  • to help us avoid your buried equipment. (personal water lines,
    septic lines, sprinkler systems, etc.)
  • completing a Right-of-Way Easement Form
  • right-of-way / service access issues
  • meter loops.  See meter loop diagrams on the specifications
    page
  • completing the Overhead Information Form
  • completing the Underground Information Form

Coordinating these items is critical to insure we exceed your expectations
when we build your new service. We work hard to simplify this part of the
process by making the Staking Tech the only contact you need to get your
electric service lines installed.  
Step 3
If you are planning a new home or business which needs electric lines built,
our professional crews will do their best to build the lines as designed while
minimizing the impact to your property.  Their attention to detail helps assure
reliable service to you.  Because our crews are careful not to damage your
property, the weather will at times cause delays in the construction time.  
When the ground is soft and muddy our heavy trucks can make a
tremendous mess of your property which is costly to repair and damaging to
our equipment as well. Construction time is lengthened by wet conditions, so
call the construction department for an update on your construction schedule
after storms or rains come through. Take a look at our job scheduling
procedures.
Residential service size options shown below are a starting point
for planning and are approximate, and may need to be increased based on
the home's location, equipment, and a/c-heating requirements.

  • 200 Amp        -Typical for homes under 3500 square feet
  • 320/400 Amp - Typical for homes under 6000 square feet
  • 600 Amp        - For homes up to around 14,000 square feet.
