It would be easier through the neighbor if he already has one ...

Yes, it would have been easier through the neighbor, but with 3 neighbors we checked with the electrician and construction manager, and it doesn't work, every time they then had no electricity themselves.

Instead of constantly calling the city utilities, we have written to them once, they should write to us what they need and what we have to do, since we are not experts. Let's see when we get a written response.

No idea what kind of clowns work there, but if it's not a standard connection, then someone should get off their butt and go out there.

When I read stuff like that. Call on Monday and arrange an on-site appointment. If it goes quickly, it doesn't matter. Put in writing what needs to be done and discuss alternatives. Then send it by email and have it confirmed.

Why should a scaffold be built for the cable? What kind of huge construction site is this? Isn't it a normal single-family house? You will need a house connection later anyway. If the route is on the other side of the street, then the municipal utilities should lay the cable and lead it directly into the construction connection. As soon as the shell is finished, the construction connection is removed and the cable is extended for your house connection. The house will hardly be supplied via the scaffold later. What kind of connection are you getting?

I have NEVER seen anyone get construction power with a scaffold here except the construction site is gigantic and consumes huge amounts of power. Then they are connected directly to the transformer cabin. But for a completely normal single-family house, you can simply use the house connection you need anyway as described.

It is a normal single-family house
The power box is 60 meters away from the construction site
Yes, the consideration to use the house connection for power was also already there, but unfortunately the appointment is much later.

The street is a 30 km/h zone and only 4.60 meters wide, and still the city clerk insists on a scaffold, said that drive-over mats break too quickly.

Yes, the on-site meeting was planned for Friday at 8 a.m., the only one who was on time was my husband.
It was apparently canceled at short notice because the electrician forgot to enter our house number on the form, after that the city stopped the construction power.
After consultation with the builder, the utility company knows about it and even has it in writing.

That’s why we have asked in writing for clarification on what is needed to finally get construction power and what we have to do. We are not electricians and not specialists.

Without knowing the exact situation now, I am quite sure that it is a complete waste of money with scaffolding or whatever. You need a house connection from the municipal utilities anyway. This house connection only has to be brought onto your property, and the construction connection is connected there. Later, the municipal utilities will come again, simply extend the cable to the house, and install the box. This is the common practice in other federal states and it works perfectly without unnecessary costs.
