[Resolved]  Tamilnadu Electricity Board (TNEB) — 3 Phase Connection

My name is Refaideen, residing in Madukkur, Thanjavur Dt. I have applied for a 3 Phase connection for my house (phase change from single to 3 phase) during the month of June, 2014. The authorities has advised that it is a long procedure & will take couple of months. So I have waited & was following closely with Madukkur EB Office...after 3 months the officers visited my house & they disconnected the line & given a temporary connection from our nearby house. They said that this is the part of the procedure...don't worry, we will finish within a month. Now another 2 months went...still we are getting power from our neighbour for which they are unhappy now. The beauty is...yesterday (09.11.2014) the EB staff visited my home to take the meter reading & said..."Oh!! you are getting power from neighbour house...this is illegal...you & your neighbour will be fined INR 1, 000, 00/- (1 lakh)". [protected] What is this...???? the connection was given by EB staff only (with the knowledge of AE)...now another EB staff is coming home & saying this is illegal...it will be fined. Now really we are in a Mess...around 35, 000 INR has been paid...5 months gone...we are getting power from neighbour house...3 phase connection is still in queue (this is wat they said). So, please arrange to resolve this issue ASAP. Regards, Refaideen +91 [protected] Madukkur, Thanjavur, Tamilnadu.
