Power utility and electrical rules

Saskatchewan's main electric utility: SaskPower

The Technical Safety Authority of Saskatchewan (TSASK), an arm's-length agency of the provincial government established in 2010, is responsible for electrical inspection and safety monitoring.

Connecting a generator to a building is electrical work and rules differ by province. Use a licensed electrician and confirm local requirements. See electrician hookup.
