The AIR SERVICE will not be delivered to premises located in an area designated by the Ministry as an underground district. 2. The Department converts certain areas from the distribution of common goods to underground distribution. Before installing your charger, you need to know the available electrical capacity of your home. If the extra charge from charging electric vehicles exceeds your home`s available electrical capacity, you`ll need to upgrade your service panel. A licensed electrician can assess the charging capacity of your home and determine if charging your electric vehicle requires an upgrade to the service panel to handle the extra charge. ladwp.

DROP SERVICE Conductor Spacing 1. GENERAL The Minimum Distance for Ground SERVICE Fall Drivers, Structures and Other Objects are set forth in California Public Utilities Commission General Order 95 (G.O. 95). Unless otherwise stated, all distances specified in this section are based on the use of insulated and abrasion-resistant SERVICE drop conductors. b. The heads, support structures and attachment points of the SERVICE shall be so arranged as to provide the required distances measured from the lowest point of the drop of the SERVICE, including the drip loop. To install a home charging station, you must first check your home`s existing electrical infrastructure. Each home is wired with a specific electrical capacity, which is the total amount of electricity (kWh) a home can draw from utility lines at a time. It is the customer`s responsibility to determine whether the location of new or existing power plants conflicts with federal, state, or local regulations. All relocation work of the utility company to maintain appropriate distances is the responsibility of the customer.
8 C If an existing SERVICE customs clearance is affected by modifications of the premises by a customer, either the owner or the tenant, the customer must provide the means to remedy the eviction violation at the customer`s expense. If it is necessary for the department to move the drop of SERVICE in order to correct impaired authorizations, the client must reimburse the department for the costs of the department. 2. DISTANCES FROM BUILDINGS a. Above vertical distances: Minimum distance from buildings Non-insulated conductors (WP) Abrasion-resistant insulated conductors (RAI) (1) Operated buildings – All parts of the building, including metal or non-metallic cornices, decorative appendages, eaves, roof or parapet wall (see pages 7-5, fig.) 5 B. The ministry will determine the number of drops of SERVICE that must be delivered to a building or office. 2. PERMISSIBLE LENGTH The maximum length of a span of service drop ladders depends on the slope or degree of terrain, trees or structures in between and the size of the ladders to be used, but must not exceed 150 feet. 3. NUMBER OF SERVICE DROPS Usually, only one drop of SERVICE is provided for each building or structure for each authorized class of service.
Exceptions: a. A building may be authorized to receive additional service drops for each category of SERVICE authorized, provided that the service drops are spaced more than 150 feet apart, measured in a straight line and supplied from the existing pole line or if otherwise necessary for ease of use or the need of the department. If your home needs more capacity, follow the „How to apply for a new secondary electric utility“ section above. Electric Service Planning 1055 E.
