ESB Networks Charges

    I can see from the ESB Networks website that their charge for a new connection is €1644.

    I already have an ESB connection on my site, currently going to a pole beside my soon to be demolished cottage (Networks recently cut the cottage off at my request). I know I will have to trench in the supply from the pole at the boundary of my field but what I am trying to find out is if there is the same €1644 charge given that the supply already exists on the site.

    Obviously I know I can ring ESB Networks and ask them and I will in due course but it is midnight and there is no one there to take my call :)

    Anyone here have experience of having an ESB supply resited into a new build?

    Hi LoTwan,

    As you are perhaps already aware (and you may have done this in the meantime) the best course of action is to make contact with a local area office technician/engineer. Contact details for ESB Networks can be found here.

    As this is a forum for ESB Customer Supply only (I realise however that you originally posted this query elsewhere) I can only be of limited assistance.

    Best of luck with the project; I hope you get sorted.

    Thanks,

    David.
