Sir, this is the second complaint i am lodging within a period of 2 days. I am living in nilamangai nagar, adambakkam, chennai. Every year during summer there is always unannounced power cut in our area, while other areas in adambakkam receive uninterrupted power supply, especially during night time after 10 pm. 2 days back there was power cut at 10.15 pm and it was restored around 1.15 am only. The voltage is also very low around 190-195 only. Again today they have cut the powersupply after 10 pm. It is not attended immediately. The eb office keeps the receiver down till the power is restored so that nobody is able to complain. This causes extreme inconvenience to children, aged people, office goers and students who are having exams now. Nobody is able to sleep as the weather is sultry. I request the authorities to intervene and ensure uninterrupted power supply at night and swift action if power cut occurs. Electricity minister says there is no power cut. But here it is contrary.

    Respected sir,
    I am farmer living in a village called rayanagoundervalsu near pallapatti, aravakurichi, karur. I have applied for tamilnadu agricultural service connection before 1 year ago, but still i have not received the service. When i cross checked with our village eb man he said that the tansformer is not there to give connection. But he is bribing money for several reasons like transporting the post, money for working, planting the electric post and also for many other things from many people farmers he bribe from like rs.10, 000 to rs.20, 000. I kindly request you to check and solve the problem.

        Dear tneb,
        I am tamilventhan s residing at plot.25, narmada st, sri devi kumari amman nagar, velachery. A wire cover from a power line is hanging in our locality. The wire cover is hanging very low, almost touching the the ground below. Children in our locality play in our street and we fear they might touch the hanging cover out of curiosity. It is difficult to move our vehicles in and out of our home because of this hanging wire. Please do get this fixed at the earliest. Thanks in advance!

            Hi,
            We have bought a 3bhk flat in porur, chennai and have obtained no due letter from the builder. The builder has not obtained cc and tneb connection and allowed all residents (Around 400) to stay. The supply power connection from tneb temporary connection and from generators and started charging money. But we all have already paid rs.75000/- towards tneb power connection but the builder says tneb connection is possible till they get cc from cmda.

            Meanwhile, the builder had installed (In the month of june 2017) the temporary meter (Not certified) for each resident and started charging money as per the meter.

            Now, i would like to hear from the experts that do we have to pay the money as per builder bill? Is it legally valid to charge from us especially when we had already filled up the tneb new connection form-1 along with money (Rs.75000/-)

            Pls advice.

            Warm regards,

            Venkat

              We are the residents of nbr homes, chinnakullu village, muthali via, hosur. This is to bring to your notice about the illegal usage of water supply from the common layout's water borewell which is currently being used by two of our nbr residents without the knowledge of the tneb department or the other residents from a couple of days.
              As the residents have collectively decided not to pay for the water bill, the tneb department has removed the main fuse in this regard, but the affoermentioned activities are going on without your knowledge.
              Hence, we would request you on behalf of the other residents to take necessary action to solve this issue as soon as possible.
              Thank you.

                      I am living in nilamangai nagar, adambakkam. Every year during summer there is unannounced power cut and severe voltage fluctuation in this area especially at night. Now for the past few days again unannounced power cut has started especially after 10 pm and it is not rectified even for hours together causing extreme inconvenience to all preventing normal sleep. Every year they attribute this to cable fault. But why this occurs especially at night during sleep time. Does the cable know the time?. I request the authorities to take action on those involved for not attending to the problem quickly. This is a perennial problem in this area.

                        Hello. I am a resident of thirumangalam road, villivakkam for more than 40 years. We have been facing this low voltage fluctuations every year between march and may. Voltage gets dropped drastically from 220 to 150 when air conditioner is switched on. This even ended up in getting the ac tripping off and this prevails with double booster stabilizer. Washing machines, televisions, laptops have been damaged due to the irregular fluctuations. We are really worried and unhappy about the service that we get from electricity board. Hoping for the best from this complaint.

                            My neighbour is misusing the tamil nadu electricity board by bypassing the electric connection skipping the meter in order to get low electricity bills.
                            They are using most of the power consuming home appliances such as electric motors, aircondition, etc.,
                            I hope you will take some immediate action.

                                Dear sir/madam

                                There is a person named babu in tneb in thiruvaiyaru (Pin code 613204). He is not actually working in tneb and he is not a goverment employee too. He is just kind of an assistant there.

                                He behaves very rude to the consumers as if he is the manager and treats consumers very badly. Shouting at elders, atrocious etc.

                                He performs meter reading in the houses and doing all these.

                                Please take necessary action on him.

                                Thanks
