JUST 70 ( seventy only ) VOLTS !

POWER SUPPLY AT VALIYAVILA REGION OF VELLANAD SECTION

CONSUMER NO.16209-0 KSEB

* * *

Sir,

           please refer my letter no.201106/kseb/a dated june 17, 2011 regarding the low voltage problem faced by your conusmers in the valiyavilla region of vellanad section handed over, in view of your absence, to your PA in person on the same day.

          I am yet to get any response whatsoever from the concerned authorities on the matter.

Meanwhile the situation here is getting from bad to worse. The maximum voltage of the current supply recorded by me over here is 170 volts - that was during the day time, at about 1030AM.

            The average night time voltage is around 115 volts with the lowest recorded being 70 volts - NOT 170 volts but just 70 (seventy) volts!

             Please see that I have graphic evidence to prove my above statements regarding the voltage.

                    I intend to pursue the matter further, initially with a petition to the consumer disputes redressal forum of the kseb and would consider myself free to do so if the voltage is not brought to acceptable levels within a week.

Yours faithfully

sd.

SOS

EXTREME LOW VOLTAGE PROBLEM AT VALIYAVILLA ( KSEB VELLANAD)

Sir,

                Since the evening of 15 june 2011 the voltage of the power supply to valiyavila area coming under vellanad electrical section dipped so low, none of the equipments will function except some cfls. This situation persisted for the whole of the following day and later in the night of 16 june 2011 the voltage dipped so drastically, that even the best cfls will not function leave alone any household appliances including the fridge which is a sort of essential appliance. Also this place is a remote rocky area and has no public water supply. One has to perforce depend on borewells for water which invariably has to be pumped using electricity.

                      With this sort of low voltage life literally comes to a standstill; and as on today the situation is persisting. I am given to understand that this sort of fluctuations are a regular feature of this area.

                    I would request of you to look into the matter and resolve the issue at the earliest.

Yours faithfully

sd.
