Construction power cabinet ?
Okay, I thought Vattenfall only rented to their own customers. Now I've decided to go with the actual facade meter cabinet directly. I found cabinets for rent at Hyreshuset, but it got so darn expensive.
No, it usually involves large metal cabinets. The ground connection is supposed to terminate in the cabinet. There are likely three fuses and an electricity meter there. Additionally, there is probably a suitable socket for your Elbjörn in the cabinet (red three-phase socket, 16/32 A). I have never rented such a cabinet, so these are just somewhat qualified guesses. :Said said:
Sollentuna Energi did not allow me to connect the "real" electricity directly; instead, I had to have construction electricity first. But their cost was only 1000 SEK for connection and disconnection, which wasn't so expensive compared to other providers. I was still able to use the real cabinet, so I didn't have to rent a cabinet! Thanks for all the tips!
Taking the opportunity to slip in a small question in this excellent thread;
If the summer cottage that we (we) own is already connected to the power grid, there shouldn't be any additional connection fee for the villa, right? Although the summer cottage will be after midsummer, that shouldn't make any difference, should it?

sitting here and marveling at all the knowledge that exists here, so I thought I'd ask a completely different question about electricity connection.
Today we have an overhead line leading to the small cottage that exists on the plot where we are going to build, and I heard from someone that you are not allowed to keep this, but must bury the line even though it is outside the detailed planning area, does anyone know if this is true ???
it kind of feels a bit unnecessary

Today I called our network company and they do NOT connect the regular electricity unless the cabinet is attached to the house.....
In other words, it's construction electricity that's needed, and I'm considering, like someone else did in the thread: Can I buy a small panel at Classe and install it in a metal cabinet and connect from this? Or do you have to rent an expensive cabinet to get electricity during the construction?
Tried to get an answer from the guy at the electric company but you'd have to search far and wide for a grumpier fellow....
