The Technical Connection Approval (ATR — Aviz Tehnic de Racordare) is the document issued by the distribution operator (Retele Electrice Romania / Distributie Energie Electrica Romania, for the Bucharest–Ilfov–Giurgiu area) that sets out the technical conditions and the connection tariff for hooking up to the electricity grid. It is obtained on the basis of a connection application together with supporting documents, and issuance typically takes a few weeks. At SUN WATT, an ANRE-certified company, we prepare and submit the ATR dossier for you from 350 lei (consultancy and submission, excluding the operator's fees), with the final connection price being the one stated in the ATR.
When you need it
You need an ATR whenever you want a new connection to the electricity grid or a change to an existing one: a connection for a house, flat, warehouse or commercial space, a temporary site (construction) connection, a power increase (capacity upgrade), or a switch from single-phase to three-phase supply.
How it works — step by step
- Assessment and preparation of the connection application. Together we determine the power you actually need and the right solution (single-phase 230V or three-phase 400V). We prepare the connection application and check which documents are required in your specific case, at no cost.
- Compiling and submitting the dossier. We complete the dossier with the identity documents, ownership documents and technical documentation (site plan, planning certificate where applicable) and submit it to Retele Electrice Romania on your behalf.
- Operator review and issuance of the ATR. The operator reviews the application and issues the Technical Connection Approval (ATR), which sets out the technical conditions, the approved power and the connection tariff. We follow up on the dossier and respond to any requests for additional information.
- Handover of the ATR and next steps. We clearly explain the contents of the ATR and the connection tariff to you. From here we move forward with the connection contract, the design and execution of the connection, and the DIU (Utilization Installation Dossier — Dosarul Instalatiei de Utilizare) — everything turnkey, right through to energisation.
