Tneb — electricity to unapproved houses

Address:

Chennai, Tamil Nadu

Respected sir/madam,

This is to bring to your notice that we have been living in a flat for the past couple of years and 2 houses out of these 8 houses in the flats are not approved. This is built and sold to 1 individual and the other one is taken control by the building owner's relatives. All the other 6 houses which are approved are occupied.

I personally would please the respective departments to take action and stop electricity as it has been procured by illegal means through tneb for many years now.

My eb reading is close to 19 units per day
The unapproved house meter records 5 units a day with 24 hours ac

My average meter consumption and per my meter says 21 units per day even when no one is at home.

The foreman recommended by the ae says that their experience is more and whatever the foreman says is right in terms of connection. They had tried to take a load and confirmed that bill will be so much.

I was also told that i have no right to make a complaint about the neighbours meter. I had told them it is running slow and mine is fast. For which the foreman replied that, they need to get a complaint from the respective house to check if it is running slow.

I was trying to explain to them that even i have 10 acs in my house and none of them is working would you still consider it, for which they say these are the rules.

So inbetween my connection and the meter i suspect that the unapproved house is using my connection, we are trying to find out as to how to go about this, however i request the department to first (1) seize connection or take action on the building owner (2) stop connection

The exceeding bills makes me very sick and also even when we dont use the ac, our eb reading goes to 10 units in the night time.

I request you to do a surprise check as i dont trust the local tneb department in this case. They are ready to do anything for the builder.

Builder has tampered my meter with the help of tneb employee
Builder had an agrrement with the tneb employee to have a meter that doesnt include ac bill
Tneb makes only regular check and confirms that meter is running well and fine.

When my neighbor is out of town my eb meter is very less.

Request the department to take action :
