Dragomirești-Vale is a commune in the west of Ilfov County, spread along the villages of Dragomirești-Vale, Dragomirești-Deal and Zurbaua, in a semi-rural area that has transformed rapidly in recent years: alongside the older households, parcelled-out plots, single-family houses and small residential developments have appeared, catering to those who want peace and quiet close to Bucharest but also to the A1 motorway. In this landscape, the most common need is bringing power to a newly built house on a plot that has never had a connection (bransament), or a temporary connection for the construction period. SUN WATT, a company certified by ANRE for design and execution, takes on all of these situations in Dragomirești-Vale and handles the complete journey through to the meter. For a household with ordinary domestic consumption we install a single-phase connection (230V), while for homes with a heat pump, workshop, irrigation or an EV charging station we recommend the three-phase option (400V), where the required power is greater. The distribution operator for the area is Retele Electrice Romania S.A. (formerly E-Distributie Muntenia / Enel), and we prepare the connection request, follow up on the issuing of the Technical Connection Approval (ATR), produce the design and execution of the connection, and prepare the Utilisation Installation Dossier (DIU) through a certified electrician. Because in the commune's villages the distance from the property boundary to the existing pole or grid varies from one street to another, we come out to the site to assess the location and determine the right solution — overhead or underground — before submitting the dossier. In short, we spare you the trips to the operator and carry the work from dossier all the way to the pole.
At an administrative level, the distribution operator for this area is Rețele Electrice România S.A. (formerly E-Distribuție Muntenia / Enel), and it is through this operator that all connection requests are filed and the ATR (technical connection approval) is obtained. Being a predominantly rural commune, the usual solution remains the overhead connection from the existing pole on the street, the most economical and quickest option; on the recently parcelled plots, where the network has been extended underground, a buried connection can also be carried out, so that overall the area functions on a mixed basis. For a new connection, the dossier typically includes the urban planning certificate (certificat de urbanism), the title deed or land registry extract (extras CF), the site plan (plan de situație) and the completed connection request (cerere de racordare). As a guideline, from the filing of the dossier to the actual energisation, between 4 and 12 weeks usually pass, depending on the operator's timelines and the complexity of the work.
Services available in Dragomirești-Vale
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.

The timeline from file submission to energisation is typically 4-12 weeks, with the final cost confirmed through the ATR (Technical Connection Approval).

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.

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.
