We are the residents of Ranganathan Nagar, I Cross Street, Selaiyur, Chennai – 600073, here we are facing low voltage and frequent fluctuation in current for many many months. In spite of giving repeated complaints to the Electricity Board this problem is not rectified. Even the most commonly used electric equipments which are mandatory are not functional, we are running without water for days together as the motor pump is not working due to low voltage. We were earlier informed that the problem is due to our house being towards the end of distribution of power from the transformer which is quite a distance from our area, we were also informed that two new transformers have been allotted for our area whereas now after 5-6 months have passed but no sign of any improvement in fact the situation has worsened. Because of this issue, we do not even get the benefits of electrical equipments such as AC/Fridge/Washing machine on time, especially during these peak summer months. Families with infants and elders who are bed ridden are the most affected. It is our request that this matter be given some importance and looked into.

Hi,

I am staying nearby rippon building. We are facing longer hours powercuts daily. Even if we make a complaint to EB office, they are giving us really irresponsible answers and asking us to sleep in terrace. Very poor customer service... They are not mainting proper cables....

I request you to provide the proper power supply to our area. V.V.Koil 1st lane.

I came to know from my house owner that its all because of the lodge 'Golden cafe' nearby rippon building. As they use huge amount of power, the power shortage is happening.

This issue can be resolved by setting up a seperate transformer to our street.

In this hot summer its really hell to live in this area.

Please take some necessary actions to resolve this issue.

this is with reference to the my online complaint at TNEBNET.ORG/CCMS, there has been constant low volateg of 140 V all through the day and night, the neutral line is out, so we had no option but to connect it to the earth line which is highly dangeraous to life and liberty of the residents(neutral line of all the house connected to the pole are out, so the problem lies with pole neutral and not with the connecting wires),

Even i know this that it is useless to write but, am in hope of some true indian officer might see this and may take some needful action..

Becasue of some are more of corrupt people our india is developing and will remain one for ever

the above complaint is for
133, 1 st Street, Sri Sakthi Ganapathy Nagar,
Ajax(Back Side)
Thiruvottiyur,

Hi,

we are living in chennai suburb in madipakkam and we are getting very low voltage 183V instead of 230 V though we have 3 phase meter in place.
We reside in THIRUMURAN ST, SAKTHI NAGAR EXTN, MADIPAKKAM, CHENNAI -91

We are facing the issue for the past few years and no one is resolving this issue.
Can you please look over this ?

Thanks,

total current flutuation in adambakkam,parthasarathy nagar,2 nd street,at total night
because of this all of the electrical items got damaged

There is a heavy voltage drop continuously in this area.. Im residing in Tellus Avenue Phase II, where the power problems exists for more than 2 months.. No proper care is taken.. The transformers arent there to boost up the supply or step up.. All the people are suffering in this area.. Please do the needful ASAP.. or let me know the situation prevailing in this area and what are the actions taht are going to be carried on..

Sub: Very bad voltage fluctuations in the area Panayur, chennai 119.

I dont understand why the EB is not fixing additional transformer or increasing the capacity of transformer in this area. More houses, hence air conditioners and hence lot of power consumption. The house at the last of the line suffers very badly.

All that the EB officials say - there is this problem through out TN.

Who is answerable - the EB department or the government?

Well, I dont want reasons. All that I want is solutions. Is there any solution to this issue or every body interested to pass the ball in others court?

NET RESULT: I (ALL PEOPLE) SUFFER.
Is there not anyone who is concerned about this condition in this state? Everybody speaks who is going to act on this?

Dear Sir

I have paid online EB bill of Rs.724/- from my Indian Bank
Debit card account. The amount got credited, but bill has not been generated in EB account server. Please solve this issue.

We live in Gowriwakkam Area and for the past one month, the voltage has been very low and we were never able to switch on Air conditioner. The heat has been so intense and most of the nights we are not able to sleep, I asked the EB people and they say, they cannot help as the incomin voltage itself is low. I do not to whom should we go ask for.

Massive powercuts since 48 hours in MGR NAGAR VELACHERY

about 2000 to 580 Resisdence with close to 4000 people, who are paying their bills in time are facing huge challenge to live here in M.G.R NAGAR, 14th Street, Velachery, Chennai 42 as Power cuts is a frequent breath taker. Most of the time power shuts down in the late/mid night. And when we call to ask the status to valechery electric office they keeps the phone purposely busy so that they dont get disturbed, As I write this compalint, already 5 hours had passed by with out power and now it is 9.30 PM. No one attents the call or the complaint line would be kepy purposely busy. When poeple of this localty together tried to meet AE of this area, his reply was - JUST LIKE A GOVT OFFICIAL Reply. Were are we heading towards, i really suspect. The problem is every week 3 days for sure people had to suffer a power shut down for atleast 6 hours and all this falls in the mid/late nights. We are fed up with the local EB guys. I think a serious thought process and strong step has to be taken either by consume forum or EB higher ups to change/remove/suspend few EB guys here in pammal along with the officers holding this office, so that people donot face this sort of issue anymore.

HAVE I WRITTEN AND PROJECTED OUR PROBLEM TO THE CORRECT CONCERN AUTHORITIES.
WOULD ANY ACTIONS WOULD BE TAKEN -
WOULD POWER FAILURE WONT BE ANY MORE OUT BREATH TAKER.

Hi,

There is a power cut in our area in the early morning 3 O'Clock. We tried calling the TNEB customer care # 155333 which is always say busy. and also We tried calling TNEB complaint (Kolathur[protected] which was also busy. There is no possiblity the general customer care number is busy all the time and there should be multiple line, but we get the recorded message the number is busy statement. We would like to intimate the Cunsumer form to check the real staus on this.

Thanks.

I'm writing this letter to the concerned authority regarding the electricity low voltage problem with the public interest and welfare.We a residents of Attipedu (1/55, GNT Road) chennai-6000 67, severely struggling by low voltage problem.Because of this issue, We could not even get the benefits of electrical equipments such as AC/Fridge/Washing machine on time, whenever required.Kindly request you to solve this problem by considering public interest and welfare.Thank you very much.

Power cuts in our area is a big concern and it doesnt sound good, as the power generating stations are nearby. It is very difficult to survive without power and that too in this peak summer. Can somebody look into this power needs in tamilnadu? How long we need to suffer from power cuts? Request the concern authroities to look into the matter seriously.
