I moved from Long Island to the Neck Rd. in 2018.
NHEC charged $11,400 for electricity hookup. At that time, copper was $22/ft.
Two new poles were placed on my property; hookup from pole on the Neck Rd.
My driveway is somewhere around 560 ft. Poles will either be from NHEC or Consolidated Communications. Usually, a transformer for each home. One transformer can become inoperative while others on that main line still provide service. Happened to me on West Point Rd. when a tree took out my house transformer.

NH PUC
