Estimating power-related job costs

Every construction project is unique, and SRP wants to partner with you to be sure yours runs smoothly. Many of our developers have requested rough estimates of SRP’s construction charges in order to prepare project budgets in advance of breaking ground.

To assist you in this effort, we’ve provided more detailed information about our pricing policies below. Construction fees vary based on services requested.

Need help? Email construction@srpnet.com. Someone will respond within 48 hours Monday through Friday.

Basic estimating assumptions

The estimated charges shown below are based on:

  • Construction jobs that include up to 1,000 feet of primary construction
  • Customers providing all trenching and conduit needed for construction

Exact charges will be determined after thorough plan review and discussion. Explore the resources below for information on pricing based on your project.*

Predesign

After you submit your plans in the SRP Plan PortalOpen new site., an SRP representative will work with you to gather information about your project, including:

Developers seeking new or upgraded electrical service are required to submit preliminary site plan documents to initiate the infrastructure design and construction process.

Next, we’ll meet to review your plans, discuss responsibilities on the Customer ChecklistDocument is a PDF and develop a timeline.

Design

Once we meet with you and review your documents, we'll design a plan for your project.

When you receive these design plans, known as redline prints, you'll:

  • Have an opportunity to review and request any changes
  • Be asked to have the property blue staked by Arizona 811Open new site.
  • Be provided with a list of SRP survey requirements (control points)

When both parties agree on the plan:

  • We'll give you an Owner Agreement that you'll complete and return. (See a sampleDocument is a PDF)
  • If your power lines will cross other properties, we'll have you obtain Owner Agreements from those property owners as well.
  • We'll provide a contract for you to review that will detail what SRP will construct, what you'll construct and any required fees. (See a sampleDocument is a PDF)

You can either pay in full or make two payments:

  • The first 25% payment covers design fees and is non-refundable.
  • The final 75% payment is due 60 days before your project is connected to the power grid.

After you sign the contract and submit your first payment, we'll provide your construction prints.

Customer Construction

Construction can begin once you:

  • Receive construction prints that detail your construction responsibilities and ours, including the inspections we'll perform along the way.
  • Attend a preconstruction meeting with your SRP design consultant to review your construction prints. You can arrange to have any additional contractors attend this meeting too.

Inspection

To ensure a smooth inspection, complete the following steps first:

  • Establish a billing account
  • Have letter of authorization ready if street lighting is included.
  • Inspect all trench and conduit work as well as any three-phase transformer pads.

What SRP will inspect

Here’s an overview of what SRP will inspect:

  • Your trench and conduit as well as any pads you install for our equipment
  • Your service entrance sections (or SES/meter panels)

Construction
