This is a draft complaint framed by Mario and Muriel on the power issue, to be taken up by the Saligao civic and consumers' forum. -FN
Draft of complaint. Edit as needed. M&M. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Date: _____________ To The Chief Engineer, Electricity Dept. Panjim. Goa. Sub: Lack of switches hold Saligao consumers to ransom! ```````````````````````````````````````````````````````````` Dear Sir, Every year the monsoons are a nightmare for us in Saligao and Nagao villages. Throughout the rainy season, coconut and other trees keep falling on the High Tension lines mainly in Baga and Arpora. This causes the Baga and Arpora feeders to be shut down for repairs, for several hours at a stretch and sometimes for a whole day. The problem is that hundreds of consumers in Saligao and Nagoa on those feeders are also deprived of electricity during that time. Food goes bad, production stops and life generally comes to a standstill in all the houses and establishments upline from the substation in Saligao to the scene of the accident. Draft of complaint.

The problem is that hundreds of consumers in Saligao and Nagoa on those feeders are also deprived of electricity during that time. Food goes bad, production stops and life generally comes to a standstill in all the houses and establishments upline from the substation in Saligao to the scene of the accident. When a tree falls on the HT lines we suggest that the line be isolated from the that point onwards, so that life can go on normally in villages upline. We know that this is technically possible by installing switches at all the transformers so that the line can be switched off downline from the point of the accident and the area isolated for repairs. This will ensure that life goes on normally and consumers between the Saligao substation and the point of the accident are not held to ransom by the Electricity department. This has gone on for too many years. Given the advancement of switch technology, such primitive repair methods have to stop immediately. Please install the necessary switches at the earliest so that hundreds of innocent consumers are not penalised for such long hours at a stretch, for no fault of theirs. Thank you. =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=--W-E-B--S-I-T-E--=-=-=-=-=-= To Subscribe/Unsubscribe from Saligaonet | http://www.goacom.com/saligao_tinto/ ============================================================================ * Send e=mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] (NOT saligaonet@goacom.com) * Leave SUBJECT blank <--- Commom Mistake !! * On first line of the BODY of your message, type: subscribe saligaonet YOUR.EMAIL OR unsubscribe saligaonet YOUR.EMAIL Questions/Problems?
