Apply for Membership and Electric Service
We require new members and existing members to complete the Application for Membership and Electric Service form, provide proof of government-issued photo ID, provide proof of business registration and ownership and Federal Tax ID or EIN if membership is a business, and if rental property, a copy of the rental agreement or if property is purchased, a copy of the purchase agreement can be requested.
Security Deposit
We may require a security deposit paid prior to start of service for a customer who has not previously had service with Sierra Electric Cooperative and cannot establish an acceptable credit rating (letter of credit from established gas, water or electric utility for current 12-month period), or a Sierra Electric Cooperative customer who has on three or more occasions, within a 12-month period, received a final notice, or as a condition of re-connection of service following discontinuance of service by Sierra Electric Cooperative, or for a customer who in an unauthorized manner has interfered with or diverted the service of Sierra Electric Cooperative on or about the premise.
New Service, Service Upgrade, Change or Relocation of Service
Consumers will need to complete an application for new service, service upgrade, change or relocation and read and understand the Cooperative's Line Extension Policy. The consumer is also required to provide additional documents listed on the application. Click on the links below to access the application and line extension policy.
Application for New Service, Service Upgrade, Change or Relocation
Once the application is complete and submitted, the consumer will be charged an applicable estimate fee. The estimate fee must be paid before details regarding the estimated cost of construction will be discussed or an estimate provided.
Please note we are working to improve this process and requirements are subject to change.
Online Request
To expedite the start service process, we have established an online form in which you can submit the information online; this submission is delivered to our e-mail at sierra@secpower.com. Our e-mail is not monitored 24/7; requests to connect service must be made by telephone to guarantee start of service.

Service will not be connected until a customer service representative has been able to reach the customer to verify requirements are met.
