BSES has taken several steps to reduce the impact of monsoon-related issues. These include raising the height of transformer bases in low-lying areas to prevent water logging, securing proper fencing around transformers, and deploying Quick Response Teams (QRTs) to tackle emergencies. Additionally, a war room has been established to monitor complaints and ensure their quick resolution.
Consumers are urged to follow safety guidelines to avoid electricity-related mishaps. These precautions include staying away from electrical installations like poles, sub-stations, transformers, and streetlights, advising children not to play near electrical installations, and getting the entire wiring in their premises checked by a licensed electrical contractor. It is also recommended to install an Earth Leakage Circuit Breaker (ELCB) and keep a "Tester" at home to check for electricity leakage.
