Găiseni is a rural commune in the north of Giurgiu County, located near the A1 Bucharest-Pitesti motorway and on the boundary with Dâmbovița County, with constituent villages (Găiseni, Cărpenișu, Căscioarele, Podișor) and households spread across extensive areas. In communes such as these, the most frequent requests are a connection (bransament) for a house built on a parcel split off from agricultural land, a temporary building-site connection for the duration of construction, and a power upgrade (spor de putere) at a household where a heat pump or a workshop has been added. SUN WATT SRL, a company certified by ANRE for design and execution, serves Găiseni and its constituent villages, travelling on site to measure the distance from the property to the nearest point of the grid and to determine whether the connection should be overhead or underground. We take on all the paperwork: we complete the connection application, follow up on the issuing of the Technical Connection Approval (ATR) from Retele Electrice Romania S.A. (the distribution operator for the Giurgiu area), design and carry out the connection, then compile the Utilisation Installation Dossier (DIU) required for fitting the meter. For an ordinary home we usually choose the single-phase option, while for high consumption we recommend the three-phase option, all clarified after the on-site assessment.
The distribution operator for the area is Rețele Electrice România S.A. (formerly E-Distribuție Muntenia, part of the former Enel group), through which all connection requests are filed and the technical connection approval (ATR) is obtained. In communes of this kind, the connection is usually made overhead, from an existing low-voltage network pole near the property, this being the most common and most economical solution for scattered households; underground work is undertaken only in isolated cases, where a section of the network is already buried. For a new connection, the documents typically required are the urban planning certificate, the title deed or land registry extract, the site plan, and the completed connection application. From the submission of the complete dossier to energisation, the indicative duration is roughly 4-12 weeks, depending on the operator's schedule and the complexity of the work.
Services available in Găiseni
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.
