When do I have to change my address with SaskPower?
It takes two days for your SaskPower to process your request, so it is recommended to inform them of your new address preferably before your move-in date. That way, you will be sure to have electricity when you move in and prevent any issues occurring with your service.

If you want to:
- start a service as a new customer,

Frequently Asked Questions
What if I need a new power service for a new home or property?
If you need brand new power service for a condo development, a vacation home or a cabin, you need to apply for a new electrical hookup. There are multiple options available to you, depending if you are a private homeowner, if you’re building a house, or if you need financing. You can see the list of options from which you can choose here under “New Connections.”

Finally.
Lastly, we mentioned in the beginning of this article that notifying SaskPower of your change of address is an important task you need to do before moving. Another integral task you have to take on, if you are living in the province of Saskatchewan, is to notify eHealth Saskatchewan to ensure your Health Card is updated.
