The DGVCL A1 Form is the primary application form for a new electricity connection or change of demand (load modification) for Low Tension (LT) consumers. This includes:
If you are applying for a connection under any category other than High Tension (HT), you will almost certainly need the A1 form.
DGVCL now supports both modes.

Pro Tip: If the website is slow, search Google for
site:dgvcl.com "A1 form" "LT"to find the direct PDF link instantly. This bypasses navigation menus.
When you open the PDF, you will see 4 main parts. Fill each carefully:
| Section | Details Required | |--------|------------------| | Applicant Information | Name, address, mobile number, email, Aadhaar/PAN | | Premises Details | Type of building (owned/rented), area (sq. ft.), purpose of use | | Load Details | Required load in kW/kVA (e.g., 1 kW for a home, 5 kW for a small shop) | | Declaration | Signature, date, and declaration that wiring is safe and compliant |
Pro Tip: In the Load Details section, do not overestimate. Excess load demand increases security deposits unnecessarily. For a standard 2–3 BHK home, 1–2 kW is sufficient.
