Vânătorii Mici is a rural commune in the north-west of Giurgiu county, made up of several constituent villages spread across the plain between Bolintin and the Neajlov valley, far from the bank of the Danube and from the county's administrative seat. In places like this, the most common requests are an electrical connection (bransament) for a house built on land inherited or bought at the edge of the village, supplying a renovated household that has never had a meter, or connecting an agricultural outbuilding or a barn that runs on electrical equipment. SUN WATT, a company certified by ANRE for the design and execution of electrical installations, serves the commune of Vânătorii Mici and its constituent villages, travelling to the site to measure the distance to the grid and to determine whether the connection can be made overhead, from the existing pole, or whether an additional solution is required. We take on the entire administrative process: we prepare the connection application, follow up on the issuing of the Technical Connection Approval (ATR) at Retele Electrice Romania (formerly E-Distributie Muntenia / Enel), draw up the contract, design and carry out the connection (bransament), and then compile the Utilisation Installation Dossier (DIU) through a certified electrician, right up to the fitting of the meter. This way, the homeowner in Vânătorii Mici does not have to make repeated trips into town and receives a turnkey job, from application to pole.
For any of these situations, the distribution operator is Rețele Electrice România S.A. (formerly E-Distribuție Muntenia / Enel), through which all connection requests are filed and the ATR (technical connection approval) is obtained. Being a commune with sprawling lowland villages, the usual and most economical solution remains the overhead connection, run from the existing pole near the property, with the underground connection appearing only in isolated cases, where the local network is already buried. For a new connection, the dossier typically includes the urban planning certificate, the title deed or land registry extract, the site plan and the connection request. As a rough guide, from filing the dossier to energisation usually takes between 4 and 12 weeks, the duration varying according to the operator and the complexity of the work.
Services available in Vânătorii Mici
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 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. 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.
