Internal efficiency leads to dip in technical faults in electrical meters: TGSPDCL CMD

Hyderabad: Continuous monitoring of power lines and encouraging consumers to upgrade their internal wiring as per their connected load contributed to a substantial reduction in burnt-out meters. However, in the year 2024, the company has undertaken several power network restoration measures, including enhancing the capacity of power transformers and distribution transformers, expanding new power lines and replacing damaged poles. These efforts have reduced the number of burnt meters to 1.21 per cent, marking a 40.3 per cent decrease in technical issues compared to 2023. Additionally, Faruqui advised consumers to take safety precautions, such as ensuring internal wiring, proper earthing, joint-free wires and installing MCBs in their homes and commercial establishments based on their connected load capacity.
