Setting up service for your move

Oncor delivers the power and handles the grid in Dallas. Your retail plan just sets your price, term, and billing.

Dallas move-in questions

How far ahead should I set up service before I move?

Enroll a few days ahead of your move so your start date is locked in. Same-day and next-day starts are common, and your confirmation shows the expected start date.

Will my power be on for move-in day?

Yes, when you enroll ahead and set your start date for move-in. The start is coordinated through enrollment so the lights are on when you arrive.

Who is the Transmission and Distribution Utility (TDU) in Dallas?

Oncor is the Transmission and Distribution Utility for most of the Dallas area. Oncor manages the lines, outages, and delivery regardless of your retail plan.

Is there any cost to compare or to get help?
