How to register your electricity supply
If you do not have a power or gas supply, you need to activate an account. This situation usually occurs in new homes or places where the supply was cut for whatever reason.
Before doing anything, the first thing you need to be clear on is why you would need to request a new registration to begin with. New registrations must be requested under the following circumstances:
- New build in which there has never been a prior electricity or gas supply.
- Existing housing or premises where there has been a supply in the past, but it has since been disconnected.

It is very important that you not confuse registering an account with switching energy suppliers. Registration is only necessary when there is no existing supply. Switching energy suppliers means simply going from one supplier to another. It is a quick procedure and there won't be any interruption to the electricity or gas supply at any time.
- If there is already a power or gas supply in your home, there is no need to request an activation, but you can change your tariff or supplier for free. We explain here how to change suppliers.
- If you are already with Endesa and you want to change your energy tariff, find the energy that best suits you.
Comparison of Electricity and Gas Tariffs
You don't need to adapt to Endesa's tariffs because they adapt to you. If you go to our catalogue you can compare the different tariffs for yourself. Or if you prefer, you can answer a few questions about your consumption habits and we will take care of comparing all the different electricity and gas tariffs and then make a customised recommendation.

What documentation do you need to register an energy supply connection?
During the process of registering for an electricity or gas supply, we will ask you for the following documentation:
- CUPS code: don't know what it is? We explain what CUPS is and how to find it.
- Address: where you want to register the new energy supply.
- Installation Certificate or Electrical Report: we explain in detail what the Electrical Report is and what it s used for here.
- Contract title holder: this is the person who will sign the contract.
- The power rating you want to register for: this is a very important part of your contract. Here we explain everything about service capacity.
- IBAN code for the account from where the direct debit will be paid: you can change this bank account online at any time.
An employee from your distribution company will go to your home or premises to activate your energy supply. For an electricity supply, a Power Control Switch (ICP) will be installed, which is responsible for regulating the chosen power rating.
How much does it cost to activate a power supply?
Registering a power supply involves some costs that are the same everywhere, regardless of the distributor.
In addition to the following, there may be other costs related to equipment installation, deposits and fees. In all cases, these amounts go to the distributor, but are paid in the first invoice you receive (sent by the energy supplier):
Registration costs for a new supply
Electricy
There is a cost involved in connecting your electricity supply for the first time (or reactivating it after more than three years without use) (Royal Decree 1995/2000 of 1 December 2000):
- Access rights: paid when contracting a new supply or for increasing the power rating of an existing supply.
- Extension rights: paid when using the infrastructure of the distribution company in the case of new supplies, when the contracted power rating increases or if the supply point has not been used for more than 3 years.
- Connection rights: paid when the electrical installation is connected to the grid.
- Verification fees: paid when the installation is checked.
- Guarantee deposit: as established in Article 79 of Royal Decree 1955/2000, this is the amount to be paid, when signing up, and it is an amount equal to the theoretical monthly billing for fifty hours of use at the power rating contracted.

What if I need a new connection?
If there is no power or gas supply in your home or premises and you need to install one so that energy reaches it, you must request to be connected and then your energy distribution company will proceed.
The distributor's role is to get the energy to your home or premises. You cannot choose the distributor and you have one per zone. You are, however, always free to choose your energy supplier, which is the company with which you have a contract and the one that sends you the bills.
