Băneasa is a commune in the south of Giurgiu County, located in the plains near the Danube and the border with Bulgaria, with villages spread along the main roads and large households, many surrounded by agricultural land. In localities such as these, the most frequent requests come from newly built houses that need a permanent electrical connection (bransament), from intravilan plots where owners are putting up a home and first need a temporary construction-site connection, and also from older households that are increasing their installed power or replacing a worn-out overhead connection. SUN WATT SRL travels to Băneasa and the villages belonging to it, assesses the situation on site and prepares the technical documentation required for connection to the network managed by Retele Electrice Romania S.A. As a company certified by ANRE for both design and execution, we handle the entire process: the connection request, the technical design, the installation of the connection from the network pole through to the connection cabinet (firida de bransament), and coordination with the distribution operator for energisation. We cover the whole Giurgiu area, alongside Bucharest and Ilfov, so that residents of Băneasa benefit from a single partner for every stage of the connection.
The distribution operator that manages the network in this area is Rețele Electrice România S.A. (formerly E-Distribuție Muntenia, part of the Enel group), and it is through this operator that all connection requests are filed and the technical connection approval (ATR) is obtained. Being a commune with rural villages and scattered households, the usual solution here is the overhead connection run from the existing pole of the low-voltage network, a more economical and faster option than underground laying, although at points where the network is buried an underground connection can also be made. For a new connection, the dossier typically includes the urban planning certificate (certificat de urbanism), the proof of ownership or land registry extract (extras CF), the site plan (plan de situație), and the connection request (cerere de racordare). From the filing of the documentation to the actual energisation, the indicative duration is roughly 4-12 weeks, depending on the operator and the complexity of the works.
Services available in Băneasa
Single-phase connection
A single-phase electrical connection (230V) is the standard supply for homes with typical consumption, usually approved up to around 11 kW. SUN WATT, an ANRE-certified company, handles the entire process from start to finish, with 2026 prices starting from 1,800 lei. The timeline from file submission to energisation is typically 4-12 weeks, with the final cost confirmed through the ATR (Technical Connection Approval).
Three-phase connection
A three-phase electrical connection (400V) is needed for high consumption or powerful equipment such as heat pumps, workshops, machine tools or EV charging stations. SUN WATT, an ANRE-attested firm, handles the entire process — from the paperwork and the Technical Connection Approval (ATR) through to energisation — typically within 4 to 12 weeks. Prices start from 2,900 lei.
Temporary site connection
A temporary site connection supplies your construction site with power throughout the building works, before the permanent connection is installed. It is obtained through a connection application and a Technical Connection Approval (ATR) from Retele Electrice Romania, and is carried out by an ANRE-certified company. Prices start from 2,200 lei (labour plus materials, excluding the operator's fees), with the whole process usually taking around 4-12 weeks.
Grid connection
Electricity grid connection is the process of linking a plot, house or new premises to the electricity distribution network so you can have your own meter and power at the socket. The process involves six stages: the connection request, the Technical Connection Approval (ATR), the connection contract, the ANRE-certified service line works, the Utilization Installation Dossier (DIU) and meter installation. In Bucharest, Ilfov and Giurgiu the network operator is Retele Electrice Romania S.A. (Distributie Energie Electrica Romania). The service starts from 900 lei (labour, excluding operator fees) and typically takes 4 to 12 weeks.
Power increase
A power increase means raising the approved electrical power at your existing connection when your current installation can no longer cope with your consumption. It is carried out through an application to the operator Retele Electrice Romania (Distributie Energie Electrica Romania), followed by a new ATR (Technical Connection Approval), a contract and any required connection changes. In 2026, labour starts from 350 lei (excluding operator fees), with an indicative duration of 4 to 12 weeks.
Prosumer / solar connection
Connecting a photovoltaic system to the grid as a prosumer means submitting a connection application to Retele Electrice Romania (Distributie Energie Electrica Romania). SUN WATT, an ANRE-certified company, prepares the full dossier, obtains the ATR (Technical Connection Approval), and coordinates the installation of a bidirectional meter so you can feed your surplus energy back into the grid.
