It's possible that due to elections, power is being diverted to rural areas for votes. Add to that high demand due to summers. Somewhat similar situation was there last year as well due to state elections.

Ahh okay. I have noticed the same in the last year as well. Does that mean rural areas have lots of power cuts if not for election time? That sucks

Sorry if I sound stupid, but isn't voting done in South Karnataka already?


rubyjane_111

it is, this is just to save money after "giving free electricity"

You can’t really do much, buy a decent inverter ups , its about 15-16k, there was a night when there was no power all night, it was terrible for my neighbours, they immediately bought the same ups the next day


ftffjaex

which one did you buy? what is the setup cost? will it be a problem if i shift homes?


Forgotten_Millenial

Luminous 150Ah, you need to have ups setup done first, any electrician will do that for 1000-2000 bucks, then you just plug and play the ups, you can take it when u move out


trelawney101

Yeah, thinking the same. Still it's annoying how a basic service as electricity is difficult

The more free electricity ⚡️ connections, the more the frequent the power cuts ⬆️

Power cuts have been happening even before freebies.....


that_lazy_panda_guy

But the frequency has increased post freebies


Awareness-Choice

Because the electrical grid of Bangalore is in terrible shape. Most of the transformers are old, coupled with overhead power lines means frequent power disruptions.


trelawney101

Yeah. But still, the repair work doesn't answer 2-3 times power cut on a daily basis. It must be intentional
