MEPCO New Connection Fee
There’s no single fee for every connection. The amount depends on the connection category, sanctioned load, location and the work required at your site.
After application and assessment, MEPCO issues a demand notice showing the exact amount payable. Treat any figure in an online guide as general information only. The demand notice is what you should follow.
Before paying, check the applicant name, connection category and amount on the notice.
Processing Time
Processing time varies from one application to another, depending on the connection category, site conditions, verification and office workload. There’s no fixed timeline that applies to every case.
If your application is taking longer than expected, use your tracking details to check its status, or contact MEPCO customer support.
Tracking Your Application
Keep the tracking or application number you received during submission. You can use the ENC tracking facility to check progress.
If your status isn’t updating or you can’t find it, reach out with your application details. Avoid sharing your CNIC or personal information publicly when asking for help.
