ᐅ Utility connection box or service pedestal

Hello,

I met with the electrician today regarding the application for the electricity network connection and temporary construction power. He suggested two options. Which one is better?

Option 1:

Install a connection pillar on the property, then connect the temporary construction power distribution box to it, and later run the connection from there to the house. Apparently, I would not pay a temporary construction power tariff, but a regular electricity tariff instead, and I would not need a main distribution board, only a distribution box.

Option 2:

Have temporary construction power installed, then remove everything afterwards and run cables into the house to the main distribution board.

Thank you in advance.

There is enough space, and the pillar would not bother me.

Check the individual costs first. For us, E.On is the main energy supplier, and having the connection on our own property would have been several hundred euros more expensive. If the price were the same, I would always prefer that option for practical reasons.

I can place the column on my property ...
the column costs about 1100 euros

So either a column on the property or a distribution box inside the house

Is this about the service connection box in the exterior wall versus the service connection cabinet mounted in front of the exterior wall? The former is not possible with every type of wall. You should definitely check on that again.

House connection pillar will be buried...
