Manage your self-supply simply

In response to your request, we would like to inform you that the Self-supply Code (CAU) which corresponds to your facility is:

With your CAU, you must legalise your facility with your Autonomous Community, and you will also be able to apply for the contract with your supply company.

For facilities with disposal, either less than or equal to 15kW on rustic land, or greater than 15 kW, you must carry out the access and connection procedure with UFD Distribución Electricidad, S.A. through the private area of our website. In these cases, the previously indicated CAU code is provisional, as at the end of the process we will confirm the definitive one.

We would like to remind you of the following steps that must be taken:

The first will be to adjust your particular facility to fit the technical instructions, in which you can find all the measurement and connection diagrams for the different types of self-supply.

Capacity ≤ 100 kW
