Connection charges

What does a connection charge include? What tariffs regulate this charge?

Connection charges represent payment to the natural gas distribution companies whenever a new user contracts a piped gas supply. The distribution company will inspect the receiving installation and, after the authorised installer issues a certificate, will proceed to install and seal the user’s metering device, if necessary.

Connection charges apply to new supplies and increasing existing supplies, and include the services of physical connection and installation verification.
