Orders of Kerala Electricity Ombudsman in pdf format |
The audit officer of KSEB detected that the light meter was connected as an additional meter to the power meter, so that, the light consumption was not recorded in the power meter. The result was light consumption was not billed for a certain period. The 2nd point is that one phase of the CT power meter was faulty and was not considered while billing. KSEB has issued a short assessment bill to recover the revenue loss. The consumer objects the bill arguing it was exorbitant and the amount demanded is barred by the question of limitation. |
The CGRF has ordered to revise the bill issued to the consumer by charging MG amount as per the original MG agreement executed between the respondent and the consumer. The consumer raised objections regarding the calculation statement of arrears prepared by the respondent. It is held that the final arrears of the consumer calculated by the respondent as correct and the consumer is liable to pay the amount deducting the amount paid by the Agriculture Dept. |
The main dispute is on tariff used for raising a penal bill for the offence of extending LT power supply from one HT premise to another and connecting unauthorized additional load there, under Section 126 of IE Act 2003. As any dispute or complaints pertaining to such matters are not maintainable before the CGRF and Ombudsman, the only point considered is whether the applicable tariff used for raising the penal bill, for the offence of unauthorized extension of service from one premise to another was in order. The applicable tariff for penalization must be the purpose for which energy was misused. |
