Make Changes or Upgrade Your Electrical Service
Check out this handy locator tool to verify that your electrical contractor is licensed by the Electrical Safety Authority (ESA).
Before making any changes or upgrades to your electrical network, the licensed electrical contractor must call the Electrical Safety Authority (ESA) at 1-877-372-7233 to apply for a permit.
After the work is completed, an electrical inspector will ensure that your work meets all of the requirements of the Ontario Electrical Safety Code.
