Dear Sir, The electric post in the service road beside the Tambaram-Redhills chennai bypass road in Tharapakkam village is leaning and might fall at any time. I had registered a complaint for it in Kunrathur EB office. But no action is taken so far. Could you please ask the concerned officer to fix the electric post. Thanks, Balachandar

    power cut in no 88 new aavadi road.kindly see to the problem as soon as possible.it is a shop and it is very difficult to manage without electricity.
    Revered Sir/Madam,
    This is with reference to the Power failure yesterday afternoon ( November 20, 2014). Despite of our complaints to the respective AE and the Line man at Tondiarpet Electricity Board, the complaint remains unattended and because of this the Toddlers and the school goers who is preparing for the exams have been affected due to the utter negligence of the respective officials of the EB. It is regret to inform you that the complaint is still not attended and unaware when it will get resolved.
    It would be of great help, if you enlighten me on resolving this issue to get rid of this extensive issue faced by us at Tondiarpet,

        We are facing huge power fluctuation problem from 11/06/2014. We have made the complaint and till now it is not rectified. Who shall take responsibility, if any fire accidents happen at our home. We are not aware whether the complaint itself is taken into consideration/registration. Each time when we call them, they say that they will come. Frightened to use the electrical items we have switched the main off. The same is happening at MMDA colony.

              Dear sir, I have purchased plot no.76, 1 st, Street., Venugopal Nagar, Kattur, Trichy. This is a corner plot with roads on two sides. The road width is 15' feet as per the Layout plan. Since the plot was lying vacant for a longtime the public was using part of the plot as road and the TNEB has erected Electric Post right in the middle of actual road as per the Layout plan. Already the matter was taken up by the Residents Association of Venugopal nagar but no action has been taken so far to shift the post 10 feet towards the storm water drain. As I am planning to construct my house in the plot I request you to kindly arrange for shifting the post at the earliest by about 10 feet towards the drain so that the road is relaid according to the Layout Plan and I can reclaim my portion of the plot. Thanking you, yours faithfully, Suseela Dayanand.

                My elderly parents residing at W - 22, Annanagar, Chennai 40 have been having problem with one meter not working. We have 2 meters and one meter has not been working for the last couple of months. As a result, the slab on the only working meter is too high, resulting in a very high bill, too much for a retired elderly person to afford. When we approached the Electricity dept in Annanagar, we were asked to see the Junior Engineer. We...

                                  Reading for meter No: 148:38:437 was taken regularly and Payment was made regularly upto 14.05.14. The meter reading as on 14.05.14 was Rs.290 and the average reading every bimonthly is around Rs.300. Meter reading was taken by a lady on 11.07.14, who said that the meter is not working. While I checked through the net the amount for the above meter was BLANK . Department staff came a few days back, fixed a used meter and said we have to pay Rs.2500/- . Now the meter reading for the above number 148:38:437 is shown on the web as Rs.1926/-. The house is used by an elderly couple. Please look into the matter and take necessary action on the meter reading and the person responsible for the mental agony. An early reply will be appreciated.
                                  for the consumer No. 458.007.218, abnormal meter reading is found. kindly take steps to rectify the fault meter and return the excess amount paid.

                                      Hello Sir, I am residing in Selli Amman Kovil Street, Annanagar, Nemilicherry, Thiruninravur - 602024 Last One Year there is serious low voltage in our locality. All the electric equipments are getting damaged and during night, even fan could not run due to very low voltage supply. Few years before, there were very less houses and so there was no issue with regard to electricity, but now there are houses built and hence more consumption at the locality. Also the reason could be there is no transformer at our locality. People not willing to come with me, becos they afraid if we raise a complaint to Thiruninravur TNEB department will punish the people through power cut like that. Request you to kindly look into this issue and fix a transformer (or) change our Electricity Line from Thiruninravur TNEB to AVADI TNEB, so that we can have appropriate supply of electricity. Thanks Santhosh Kumar.P [protected]@gmail.com Selli Amman Kovil Street, Annanagar Nemilicherry Chennai - 602024
                                      Sir, I am residing in the 5th Main Road of Ram Nagar South, Madipakkam. We have low voltage problem especially at night but also during day time nowadays. The voltage drops to 130 V in all three phases. Due to this problem, my electrical appliances are in danger. Please rectify the problem.
