$30,000-60,000 depending on terrain.

A buddy of mine was quoted 5k per pole they have to put in so I would say that number ^^^ isn’t far off.

How far can they space poles? Even at 100yd spacing you’re talking 17 poles. That’s 85k.

OP, just call up the electrical company, bend over and spell “run”

It’s not cheap. My buddy bought a ranch and it was 45k to get polls probably a quarter of a mile. Was real hilly though

I think it depends on the electric company. Fannin county co-op put in I think 7 or 8 poles for my place & my FIL and it cost 3k. I'm sure pricing is different in areas.

This. If they don't have to blast or drill through solid rock 30k maybe.

I called and talked to the head electric guy. Was nice to him over phone and through e-mails for a long time. Ours started out with an estimate over 120k. After months of talking we got it down to 55k.

Just pray you get a good person that's trying to help you.

You also have to clear the ROW.

I believe the first two poles were free lol but yeah about 100 yards or so if I remember right.

Depends on what company. They all have different extension policies. Oncor will go 300ft free or $7000 which ever will get you farther. This is their residential policy. Commercial 3 ph gets real expensive real quick
Some Coops are a little better with theirs some worse.
Make sure you let them know how many meters total. Shop or barn etc
It may help you on your extension cost.

Electric coop ran mine half a mile for $675.00 total. Which included membership in the coop.

Coops are the best

Bandera charged our neighbor $35,000 for just under a mile. We even used our equipment for the right of way on our place to save him money. With our permission he came off our feed. Had he not had this option it would have been double that.
