House connection pillar in the garden vs. house connection directly in the utility room

And formally? Did you first apply for construction power and then separately for the house connection (or at the same time)? Or did you only apply once for a (house) connection and the electrician first connected the construction power box and then directly the distribution board in the house?

built in Berlin,
construction power and power connection applied for, called to confirm that the column should continue to be used for both houses and supply the construction site and subsequently the new building. Now our thick underground cable goes directly into the switch box in the utility room. Two applications submitted and both (process numbers) handled one after the other. Sometimes the utilities want 2 columns for 2 houses.

I am also in Berlin, so your case interests me a lot. Ok, so if it has to be done that way, it’s bad for me. I thought it would be different. Was the connection inside the house cheaper because the external column already existed? Because a house connection with a box inside the house costs 1570 EUR net. New external column costs 1070 EUR net. Construction power connection 660 EUR net. If I need a construction power connection anyway and then possibly additional costs inside the house come up, then I could also save the external column that I haven’t had installed yet at my place....

if there are columns in the construction area, you have to deal with them. We had no choice with the old stock with columns. Just call the supplier and inform yourself beforehand about which procedure is better. Although it is a city, there are differences between the districts.

Yes, I can tell. The stupid thing is, nobody really thinks about it. I shared my ideas etc. with them, but no one comes up to say, your idea isn’t so smart. The contact person is currently on vacation, so I thought someone here might happen to know. I guess I have to call the hotline.
