This is the second summer we are facing Voltage issues.

The standard voltage for India is 220V-240V, whereas voltage in my locality fluctuates down to 174V and stays at 190V to 200V most of the time.

The result is lights are dim most of the time. Heavy appliances like the fridge, air conditioner, microwave get damaged from running at these low voltages.

The authorities are saying they need a place to install a transformer which nobody is providing but this is no charity and nobody is going to provide land for free.

Price per kWh customers pay to CESC is one of the highest in India, at Rs.6 per kWh and such ignorance on their part is really bad.

Updated by clayteau Voltage starts dipping from 8 pm and stays like that till 4 am. I guess that is because all of the air conditioners in the locality is switch on at that time.
