| The metering equipment at the premises was covered with vegetation. Earth leakage happened due to the vegetation. The leakage was at the appellant’s side of the installation. Sub Engineer visited the site and inspected the premises and found that the meter is showing high reading though there is no consumption in the construction site. On further testing, it is found that this is due to the earth leakage due to the growth of vegetation. This has been informed to the consumer and the cutout fuse was removed and thus, electricity is disconnected. The bill amount usually came less than Rs.300/-. The respondent issued a bill of Rs.30,000/- and given 5 installments to clear the payment. CGRF had issued order stating that the consumer is liable to pay the amount.
