Tata Power Delhi Distribution (Tata Power-DDl) will organise an extensive safety drive for its consumers and staff to reduce chances of electricity-related mishaps due to waterlogging.
A senior Tata Power-DDl official said that the drive covers checking of leakage at all Tata Power-DDl installations. More than 10,000 installations including poles, fencings, pillar boxes, street light poles, etc., have been inspected with rectifications in the leakages done, he added.
“In addition to these electric installations adjacent to various school premises are also being inspected to ensure safety of children during monsoon. The company is conducting trimming of trees to avoid falling on electrical installations, poles and wires,” he said.
Sanjay Banga, CEO, Tata Power-DDl said that Public Safety has always been a top priority at Tata Power-DDl. We have been proactive in taking measures aimed at avoiding any untoward electricity related accidents. We are regularly conducting safety inspections of our electric installations at prominent public places like Schools, Malls, Hotels, ATMs, Weekly Bazaars etc. to check and fix any electricity leakage; issuing notices for illegal encroachments near power lines and organising public awareness sessions on the importance of proper wiring and precautions to be taken.
