Bangaloreans can prepare for a power cut
Now Bangaloreans can take a sigh of relief as they can be well prepared for a power cut situation. Bescom Bangalore will issue power outage information to consumers a week in advance. According to The Karnataka Regulatory Commission (KERC) tariff 2011, electricity supply firms have to publish the power supply plan every week. It has also directed Bescom to do the same and give prior details about any sort of power outage.
Bescom claims that they are already issuing details of maintenance schedule on power interruptions. But the real time situation seems to contradict this. The authorities at KERC have found out that the consumers come to know about power cuts on the day of the maintenance work through media.
Officials at KERC also add that Bescom should plan its maintenance schedule and publish it a week in advance. They should be equipped with detailed information about areas having an outage.
Now Bescom will publish all details about outage, maintenance and interruptions seven days in advance and as they have agreed to all rules and norms by the KERC.
