Energy Workers Remind: Do Not Exceed Permitted Power
Energy workers are currently working in the village of Yelykayevo
In frosty weather, energy workers in Kuzbass more frequently record cases of electrical equipment overload. The cause may be consumers exceeding the permitted capacity of household appliances. This, in turn, can lead to a decrease in the quality of electricity supply to other subscribers or automatic shutdown of the transformer.
To avoid such situations, specialists of the branch of Rosseti Siberia — Kuzbassenergo — RES have intensified monitoring in some populated areas. Their residents are given orders to bring the capacity into compliance with the contract terms to avoid interruptions and additional crew dispatches to restart the transformer.
— In periods of peak loads on electrical networks, it is important not to exceed the permitted capacity specified in the contract with the grid company. Excessive loads on the equipment reduce the quality of electricity and can cause equipment failure. If the total capacity of household appliances and other power-receiving devices exceeds the capacity under the contract, it is necessary to submit an application to increase it. This can be done at Rosseti Siberia offices or on the grid services portal, — the grid company clarified.
Thus, in the village of Smolino, energy workers brought the consumption capacity into compliance with contract terms and issued 57 orders to subscribers on Asfaltnaya, Lugovaya, Nagornaya, Tsentralnaya, Parkovaya, Pritomskaya, and Sovkhoznaya streets.
In the village of Podyakovo, over the course of a week, they checked 103 subscribers and issued them orders to submit an application to increase capacity. This concerns residents on Lesnaya, Naberezhnaya, Sibirskaya, and Tsentralnaya streets. For 8 subscribers, energy workers set settings on metering devices.
Energy workers are currently working in the village of Yelykayevo. Before the New Year holidays, they had already carried out work to unload one transformer. After increasingly frequent complaints, specialists are checking the load on a second transformer. Concurrently, branch employees have already introduced 11 restrictions on exceeding the contract capacity.
