As an agent for the electric rate payers in Texas, Oncor must protect its assets while balancing the risks of allowing communications equipment on power poles. The goal of the Joint Use Management Group is to provide consistency so that all parties share accountability for actions that could negatively impact the safety and reliability our electric distribution system, are treated fairly and equitably, and remit appropriate costs for make-ready.

Oncor is responsible for the management, design, construction, regulatory and legal compliance, and contractual oversight of all third party communications and power space attachments on Oncor poles. We currently have over 200 license agreements with various telecommunication companies, school districts, universities, cities, municipalities, counties, government agencies and private parties. This represents approximately 1.45 million contacts on 2.3 million Oncor poles and 277,000 incumbent local exchange carrier (ILEC) joint use utility poles.

The document Electric Service Guidelines provides information and requirements related to delivery of electric service. Section 100.04.02 and Section 500.04 topics are specific to joint use management.

To discuss joint trench construction opportunities or to learn more about the process, please contact Oncor New Construction Management at NewConstructionManagement@oncor.com for assistance.
