I just moved to Zahle, how can I apply for an electricity connection?
To request an electric service from EDZ, you need to complete and sign a standard
service application form
and provide the following papers:
A copy of the construction completion certificate approved by the municipality, if your building was constructed before March 1964.
A copy of the occupancy permits, if your building was constructed after March 1964.
It is favorable you provide the above listed documents but in case you lack both certifications, a copy of one of the following documents can also be accepted:
Parcel or building ownership papers.
Building rent certificate.
Construction permits in case you were applying for a "construction subscription".

How can I read about the different tariff structures?
With every monthly bill, you are entailed to pay monthly fixed charges. The fixed charges are divided into two main categories, the Subscription Charge and the Rehabilitation Charge, you bill clearly separates between the two charges. Note that fixed charges are monthly added up to your bill whether you are consuming energy or not.
Subscription Charge:
this charge is a factor of your subscription rating. It follows the below equation for calculation:
L.L. 240 for every Phase-Ampere of the subscription
if you subscription is rated monophase-15Amp then your subscription charge is 1*15*240 = L.L. 3,600
if you subscription is rated threephase-15Amp then your subscription charge is 3*15*240 = L.L. 10,800
Rehabilitation Charge:
These are the costs of delivering electricity from generating plants across the stations to Electricité de Zahlé, then to your home or business. This includes the costs to build and maintain the transmission lines and corresponding towers.
This charge value depends on your subscription rating. It follows the below equation for calculation:
L.L. 5,000 if total subscription rating is <= 50 Ampere
L.L. 10,000 if total subscription rating is > 50 Ampere
Examples:
if you subscription is rated monophase-15Amp then your rehabilitation charge is L.L. 5,000
if you subscription is rated threephase-20Amp then your rehabilitation charge is L.L. 10,000
