If any Contribution-in-Aid-of-Construction amounts are required, they must be paid before construction of electric facilities can be scheduled. If there are additional construction responsibilities (e.g., tree trimming, final grading, conduit installation), they must also be completed before construction is planned. These additional responsibilities will be outlined in the checklist and discussed during the meeting with the staking technician.
Members are responsible for trenching and insulating approved conduit systems in underground applications. The trench and conduit must be constructed and installed to Paulding Putnam specifications as outlined on the Guideline Checklist (provided during the staking meeting), and a Paulding Putnam technician will inspect them prior to scheduling final connections.
Note: Members are also responsible for contacting 811, or visiting the call811 website, 48 hours before construction is to start.
When the member’s construction responsibilities have been completed and all electrical inspections have been secured, Paulding Putnam will schedule your job for construction accordingly.
If you have any questions, please get in touch with Paulding Putnam at (800) 686-2357.
