Description of your construction/renovation project

New construction

You want to connect your new building to the electricity network.

Demolition of an existing building

You want to demolish a building connected to the electricity network in complete safety.

Building site

You need a temporary connection for the duration of your worksite.

Moving the connection

You want to move the electrical panel board or cable connecting your property to the electricity network.

 

Renewal of the metering panel

Your metering panel board needs to be brought into line with current technical requirements (TAB).

Increasing/decreasing the power of your installation

You have new electrical equipment that requires you to change the power of your installation.

Adding/Removing additional meter(s)

You want to develop your property differently and therefore need to add/remove meters (e.g. for a residence a dedicated meter for charging electric vehicles or for a new housing unit or business).

 

What documents do I need to complete my application?

The documents to be included can be uploaded at the end of your application. Depending on the type of application selected, you will be asked to provide some or all of the following documents.

Full building authorisation (the certificate/red dot issued by the commune certifying the construction permission is not sufficient)

Extract from the cadastral map minimum 1:2500

Site plan minimum 1:200

Plan of the cellar for a single-family home or, in the case of a residential property, a plan of the technical room and a plan of the basements

I've just submitted my application for a new electrical connection or a modification via my myCreos customer space. What are the next steps?

Check of the application

Creos has received your request for a new or modified electrical connection. We check that your request is complete and technically feasible. If you have any further questions, we will contact you.
Once your request has been approved, we invite you to arrange a meeting on site.

Pilot appointment

During an initial visit, we'll plan with you and your electrician the technical preparations for your new connection or modification. If necessary, we will draw up a quotation for the work to be carried out. Please sign the quotation and return it to Creos.

Preparatory work

You and your electrician must prepare the worksite as agreed during the first visit and in accordance with the technical requirements in force. Once the preparatory work has been completed, your electrician will return the signed completion notification to us. Creos invites you to arrange a second on-site appointment to check the preparatory work.

Control appointment

During the second on-site visit, Creos will check the preparatory work.

  • If it is successful, Creos will inform you of the date on which the meter will be installed and your installation commissioned or your connection modified.
  • If the inspection is unsuccessful, you will receive an acceptance report with a request to correct any preparatory work that has not been carried out correctly. A new inspection appointment must be arranged, as described in step 03.

Execution appointment

Once the preparatory work has been validated, Creos will carry out the requested work within 30 days.

Please note that the electrician carrying out the preparatory work must be a licensed electrician in Luxembourg.
The preparatory work must be carried out in accordance with the technical requirements (TAB) in force.

Electrical connection

How and when do I submit my connection request?

You can submit a connection request or feasibility study to our services at any time via the myCreos customer portal. However, we strongly recommend that you submit your complete application before the start date of the work.

Who should submit a connection request?

Any person or company involved in your project can submit a connection request via our myCreos customer portal. However, a connection request sometimes requires technical information to be provided to the grid operator. We therefore recommend that your electrician submits the request.

What documents and information do I need to submit my request?

Depending on the type of request and your location, Creos will ask you to provide a certain number of documents before submitting your request via the myCreos platform.
Here is the list of documents required for each type of request:
 

  Construction Authorization Electricity certificate for Luxembourg City Cadastral plan extract Implantation Plan Extract Basement Plan Power assessment General Site Plan

What do I have to do if I don't have an internet connection or an e-mail address?

If a person involved in a connection project does not have an Internet connection or an e-mail address, the person making the request - e.g. your electrician - can enter their own e-mail address instead. Please note, however, that if you do not have Internet access or an e-mail address, you will not be able to access the progress of your project or to the key stages in the process.

How often does Creos have to visit the site?

There are 3 types of appointment for a connection request:

  • The initial appointment
    During the first visit, Creos will plan the technical preparations for your new connection with you and your electrician.
  • The inspection appointment
    During the second on-site visit, Creos checks the preparatory work carried out by your electrician.
  • The appointment for the execution
    Once the preparatory work has been validated, Creos will carry out the requested work within 30 days.


Depending on the type of request chosen and certain parameters defined in your request (accelerated procedure, event connection, etc.), not all 3 appointments are compulsory. You will be informed by Creos in writing as soon as you can make an appointment.

When and how can I make an appointment with Creos?

As soon as an initialor inspection appointment can scheduled, you will be invited by e-mail to contact us on 2624-2624 to arrange an appointment with one of our technical experts.

If your file is eligible for an appointment, the nearest regional centre will contact you directly.

When and how will I be informed of the cost of the work carried out by Creos?

The Creos service catalogue is a document that is revised every year by the ILR (Institut Luxembourgeois de Régulation) and published on our website. This document lists all the services provided by the network operator and the corresponding prices. 

If the price deviates from the standard service catlogue due to technical criteria or the size of the project (max. 5 connections with 40A each), you will receive a customised offer from us after the pilot appointment. This must be signed and returned by you.

How long will the work take?

Unfortunately, it's not possible to give a completion date when you submit your connection request. In fact, the time required to process a connection request will depend on the type of request submitted, the progress of the work carried out by your electrician, and our ability to schedule control or inspection appointments as quickly as possible.

How do I know if my electrical installation is still compliant?

As the electricity network operator, Creos is responsible for the development and maintenance of the public network, right up to the meter in your home. To find out whether your electrical installation (behind the meter) complies with current standards, please contact a licensed electrician in Luxembourg. We would also like to inform you that the reference documents for the technical standards are available on our website.

What do I do if I want to install a charging station or photovoltaic panels?

If you want to install a charging station or a production unit (photovoltaic panels), we advise you to contact your electrician, who will carry out an initial analysis of the conformity of your installation. Once yu have defined the equipment to be installed and its technical characteristics, you or your electrician can submit a connection request via the myCreos platform.

 

Smarty - What are the advantages of my smart meter?

Better control over your consumption

You can access more information on your consumption or production and therefore make energy savings by changing your habits.

Greater comfort

Meter readings and routine servicing are done remotely, so you will no longer be disturbed.
