Every year, during the time of monsoons, the city faces a power shutdown due to the downpour and numerous cases of electric shock. To tackle this situation, Brihanmumbai Electricity Supply and Transport (BEST) has come up with a preventive measure.
BEST has established fuse control centres spread out under its entire jurisdiction where consumers can call round the clock, even on holidays and Sundays, to address the problems of power outage and any other issue related to the power supply faced by the consumers during monsoon.
In order to register their complaints, consumers will be required to give either their consumer number or meter number to the respective fuse control centres.
Consumers can find these numbers printed on the back side of their electricity bill. They can also register their complaints on 'MiBest' app.
BEST has also stated that power supply will be disrupted in areas that face flooding or heavy waterlogging during the monsoon months.
