TPWODL Never Resort to Undeclared Power Cuts

Burla, 28.05.2024: Keeping in view the prevailing heat wave conditions, TPWODL
has made all arrangements to ensure steady and uninterrupted power supply in its entire supply
area.
In order to accomplish time-bound and prompt repair maintenance of lines and substations
during hot summer exigence, the company has deployed adequate staff with required
equipments and staff in all 9 districts under its supply area. It is worth mentioning that, no
permission has been granted from the command centre at Burla to disconnect the power supply,
unless it is absolutely necessary to undertake repair maintenance works in view of safety of
men at work.
To overcome the impact of excessive hot summer, consumers are using various types of
electrical appliances/gadgets, for which, lines and substations are overloaded beyond their
capacity, causing breakdowns and interruption of power supply on 33 kV or 11 kV feeders. In
order to rectify that faults, temporary disconnection of power is necessitated to enable the line
staff to take up repair and maintenance work observing safety precautions.
In this context, we would like to inform our customers that, TPWODL never resorts to
undeclared power cuts. However, if at any time, there is an occasional outage arises due to
system breakdowns, efforts are made to repair it on war footing and power supply restored at
the earliest possible by TPWODL team. The company’s maintenance team is available on
wheel round the clock to resolve the supply related consumer complains and can be contacted
on our toll-free number 1800-3456-798.
