The heavy rains in Pune and Pimpri Chinchwad have caused major disruptions, including power supply issues and potential electrical hazards. MSEDCL has taken precautionary measures by implementing power shutdowns in various areas and issuing a safety advisory to the public.
The intense rainfall has created conditions for electrical accidents, such as broken wires, malfunctioning street lights, and damaged power poles. Residents are urged to be cautious around electrical infrastructure and to avoid contact with wet electrical equipment.
It is important to keep electrical appliances and switchboards dry and to avoid using them on wet surfaces. Regular checks of electrical wiring should be conducted to prevent any current leakage.
In buildings with iron sheet structures or iron staircases, insulation should be ensured to prevent electrical conductivity. Residents should also be aware of the risks of water damage to electricity meters during the monsoon season.
MSEDCL has shut off electricity in flood-affected areas to ensure safety and residents are encouraged to report any electrical issues through the provided channels. Remember to contact MSEDCL if you encounter any electrical hazards and cooperate with safety measures to prevent accidents.
