With a single application, the client can request the feasibility study, the feed point and the budget. The following documents are required with the application: • location map, • title or ownership of the land- or lease agreement in force and • details of the electrical load. The plans for the System of Use by the client are also required, so that Luz de Sur can verify that the customer's installation will not cause a failure in the distribution network system. Similarly, the client has to mention the closest point of connection to confirm the exact location of the applicant's property -this is especially relevant because there are many street names repeated, sometimes in the same area. The documents do not have to be notarized. After receiving the application Luz del Sur prepares the budget that indicates the technical-economic conditions to be fulfilled and the execution of works to be performed by the electricity company. The budget is valid for 30 days. During this period the parties can sign the contract.
