Now getting a new electricity connection has become easier. The Maharashtra State Electricity Distribution Company Limited (MSEDCL) has provided as many as 41,729 new electricity connections to the consumers this year.
A person looking to get a new power connection needs to clear its outstanding electric bill payment or any offence about power theft at the place where connection is required.
Upon getting the application form for a new connection, MSEDCL will survey the area and issue demand.
The consumer has to deposit the demand amount online and send the receipt to the employee of MSEDCL on whatsapp and at the same time the consumer has to fix the wooden board. Then the company will install the new connection.
However, the consumer will not get the new connection if the place has an electric bill pending or power theft offence registered.
