The total cost to run new electrical service power from a utility pole to a house typically ranges between $1,500 and $5,000+, depending extensively on whether the installation utilizes an overhead service drop or an underground lateral trench. If local utility requirements mandate extending the primary line or installing a new pole and transformer, expenses can escalate rapidly. While electric utility companies often cover a standard baseline footage allowance for overhead connections, homeowners are financially responsible for customer-owned service masts, trenching, conduit permits, and any supplemental line extensions required across private property.
