Comed Electrical Load Form PDF Details

The ComEd Electrical Load Form helps customers in Illinois initiate or upgrade electric service, whether for new construction or modifications to an existing service. Completing this form accurately is the first step in a streamlined process that ComEd manages to deliver reliable electric service throughout its Illinois service territory.

Working with a licensed electrical contractor is strongly recommended when completing this application. Contractors have the expertise to accurately calculate electrical load requirements for motors, HVAC systems, and other high-load devices, and can coordinate with ComEd representatives and other utilities. A contractor can also help identify the correct service type and voltage requirements for the project.

Key information required on the ComEd Electrical Load Form includes: the project location and service address, type of service requested (new construction, upgrade, or temporary power), a complete list of all major electrical equipment and their load requirements, contact information for the applicant and contractor, and the customer's choice of retail electric supplier. Providing easement documentation may also be required depending on the project site.

After submitting the form, ComEd processes the electrical load application through several phases: a site visit to assess the location, electric delivery service design, contract preparation, and construction scheduling. Key subsequent phases include new service authorization, service date determination, and final site inspections. For projects involving fire pump installations or emergency services, municipal permits must be obtained and submitted alongside the form. Customers seeking similar services from other utilities may also need the PECO Service and Meter Application or the BGE Service Application depending on their service area.
