How does utility coordination affect a Clallam County service upgrade?
For a new meter, the customer submits a request for an estimate, needs an assigned 911 address and L&I-approved meter base, and the PUD schedules a field-serviceman connection after documents and payment are complete. New or altered service should be routed to the area PUD serviceman; open trenches are inspected before backfill.
What should an electrical panel estimate in Clallam County include?
A complete electrical panel estimate in Clallam County identifies the equipment, circuit work, proposed capacity, permit holder and inspection closeout. Meter changes, utility charges and restoration belong in the scope as included work or clear exclusions.
- Compare the planned loads and service work before comparing totals.
- The local utility procedure above identifies the service-connection steps to coordinate alongside the installation.

Clallam County housing-age context
47.3% of housing units were built before 1980: 18,268 of 38,613 housing units. 2024 ACS 5-year estimates; universe: total housing units.
Calculation and uncertainty
Calculation: (B25034_007E+B25034_008E+B25034_009E+B25034_010E+B25034_011E)/B25034_001E. Variable: B25034 (year structure built). The derived share margin of error was not propagated. Source component and total margins of error are retained in the research data; this share is an estimate.
Building age does not establish electrical-panel condition or a need for replacement. Equipment condition and the planned work need their own assessment.
