    DWP only allows one service drop per property either to the adu or the existing house.

      Call the power company and ask them if you can do a drop. FYI your videos are awesome!!

      ​@HektorCastillo, I appreciate you for all this information. I still need to discuss this with my wife, lol. Right now, our plan is to have power from the main house with the solar panel.
      Thank you for inspiring me doing this project as a owner-builder.

    Did this in mine all you need is to pay the permit for a new address witch in my case was 800 dollars in order for the power company to drop the line

      @@Adileneee16 yes I’m in a unincorporated area and all my paperwork and permits are from la county
      The new address permit was one of the first things I have to pay when I was waiting for approval of my plans and was little over 800 dollars
      All they do is the new address is going to be the same you have in your house plus a 1/2

    What about solar. Can you share the solar credit with an independent panel?

  • @jorgepulidovaladez9418

    Another great thing about their own meter is the renter can pay their own electrical bill

  • @edcastillo4456
    @edcastillo4456 7 месяцев назад

    Many newer neighborhoods don’t have overhead lines, but are all underground. Can this same concept work if underground? Meaning, can you run a new line from the street instead of from the existing panel?

    Aren't ADU suppose to be solar only? Sorry, I don't know much about electrical systems. Do still have to connect with City's electrical system even with solar? Thanks for any info.

      Teruk, Hello not for garage conversion to ADU. New construction ADUs have a different set of rules to follow. Good luck with your project

      Juan Hello, call your power service provider and get the correct answer directly from them. One call could save you thousands

    • @Hizenbird
      @Hizenbird 8 месяцев назад +1

      Depends on the power company. “New” options exist now with the advent/popularity of EVs. Some power companies are allowing the dropping of more lines, for example SCE.

      That's correct. I am building an ADU in norCal and the electrical company wants only side by side panel in one location with 2 meters next to each other. Not at the location ADU.
