Preparing Your Site

For both electric and gas service, please prepare your installation route:

  • Clear all trees, stumps and other obstacles.
  • Fill or grade to within six inches of final grade.
  • Install grade stakes and mark to indicate final grade.

For multifamily and commercial/industrial projects, all property corners must be staked and identified as well.

Mark all customer-installed underground facilities that could be damaged by our construction equipment:

  • Gas piping
  • Sprinklers
  • Well water lines
  • Septic tanks
  • Drain fields
  • Communication lines
  • Landscape and parking lot lighting

These facilities should be staked to identify:

  • Location
  • Depth
  • Size
  • Type of facility

For electric service:

  • Your electrician should install the appropriate electric service entrance equipment.
  • For multifamily or commercial/industrial projects, call MGE’s Electric Service Engineering Department at (608) 252-5669.
