IESCO uses its own ENC portal at iesco.enc.com.pk for new connections, change applications, and tracking.

IESCO Application Tracking — Complete Guide

Once a IESCO application leaves your hands, it moves through survey, demand notice, and installation stages tracked centrally — this guide explains what each status means for applicants across Islamabad, Rawalpindi, Attock. IESCO covers the planned sectors of Islamabad and dense Rawalpindi alongside the more spread-out Potohar plateau districts of Attock, Chakwal, and Jhelum — new connections in the capital's sector grid usually sit close to underground feeders, while Potohar-belt applications more often need overhead pole extensions across open terrain.

Can't find the Tracking ID? Search by CNIC instead — every application filed under that identity card number comes back at once, pending and completed alike.

IESCO has logged the application and assigned it a reference number — your first real confirmation the submission went through. Data entry is reviewing your documents right now. Keep the Tracking ID safe (phone notes, a screenshot, and a paper backup all at once isn't overkill) and check back in 3–5 days.

IESCO staff are cross-checking what you submitted — CNIC, ownership proof, witness details, the wiring report. Anything that looks off gets a call or SMS to your registered number, so don't let it go unanswered. This stage typically runs 3–7 working days; keep the original documents within reach in case an office visit gets requested.

A IESCO engineer has been assigned to inspect the property in person — measuring the distance from the nearest pole, checking spare transformer capacity in the area, and deciding whether new poles or cable runs are needed. Have someone home and the path to the proposed meter point clear. A missed visit means rescheduling, and that costs days.

The engineer's finished the site inspection and filed a report covering materials, cost estimate, and feasibility. IESCO now works from that report to prepare the Demand Notice — usually 5–14 working days depending on backlog. There's genuinely nothing to do on your end here beyond checking back periodically.

A real milestone: the Demand Notice is ready, listing exactly what you owe before IESCO installs the meter — service line, poles, transformer contribution, security deposit, registration. Print it with the Print Demand Notice tool, take it to any bank the notice lists, and pay the full amount. These expire, so don't let it sit.

IESCO has your payment confirmation and the application is moving into procurement and work-order territory. That confirmation lands faster, though, if you upload the bank receipt yourself through the Upload Demand Notice tool — it typically shaves 1–3 days off the verification wait even when you already paid at the counter. Worth the two minutes.

Installation is on the schedule and a crew has been assigned. They may call ahead or simply show up, so keep someone responsible at the property with access to where the meter goes, plus your CNIC and Tracking ID ready for verification. The install itself usually wraps in a few hours.

The meter's in, read, and live in the IESCO billing system — your first bill arrives with the next monthly cycle. On installation day itself, write down the meter serial number and the opening reading and photograph the installed meter. That record is what protects you if a later bill looks wrong.

Just submitted

• Save the Tracking ID in three places — phone notes, a screenshot, and on paper
• Keep your registered mobile reachable; IESCO calls if a document needs clarifying
• Check status again in 3–5 days

Document review in progress

• Keep the original CNIC, property documents, and neighbour's bill within reach
• Answer calls from unknown numbers during this window — it may be the review officer
• Don't resubmit before the status actually changes

Survey pending

• Clear the area around the proposed meter location
• Confirm an adult will be home on the likely survey date
• On a larger property, mark the boundary clearly so the engineer can find it

Demand Notice issued

• Print it immediately with the Print Demand Notice tool on this site
• Pay the full amount at any bank the notice lists
• Photograph the receipt and upload it the same day through the Upload DN tool

Payment uploaded

• Give it 1–3 banking days to verify
• Call the helpline with your Tracking ID if nothing's changed after 4 days
• Get your CNIC ready for the installation visit

Work order issued

• Keep someone at the property at all times — the crew doesn't always call ahead
• Have the CNIC and Tracking ID physically on hand
• Clear the path from the pole to the meter board and the outdoor meter location

Connection done

• Note the meter serial number and opening reading right away
• Photograph the installed meter on day one
• Check your first bill against that reading when it arrives

Problem: Status hasn't moved in over two weeks

Fix: Call 051-111-786-786 and quote your Tracking ID — ask which department currently has the file and what the expected turnaround is. Often one follow-up call is enough to get it moving again.

Problem: Got "Documents Incomplete" or the application bounced back

Fix: Read the rejection note carefully — it names the specific document or detail that's missing — and resubmit only that. Blurry scans, un-attested CNIC copies, and property documents that don't exactly match the applicant's name cause most of these.

Problem: The survey team came but nobody was home

Fix: Call the IESCO helpline and request a re-survey with your Tracking ID ready. Expect at least 7–14 extra days for the second visit, so leave a backup mobile number at the office for scheduling calls.

Problem: The Demand Notice expired before I could pay

Fix: Take your original Tracking ID and CNIC to the nearest IESCO subdivision office and ask for a fresh one. This is routine and gets re-issued, though a new DN can take 3–7 days to appear in the system.

Problem: Paid, but status still reads "DN Issued" after 4 days

Fix: That almost always means the receipt hasn't been uploaded yet — do it through the Upload Demand Notice tool. If it's already uploaded and still hasn't updated after 5 days, call the helpline with the payment date, bank name, and transaction number in hand.
