The appellant is an industrial consumer having consumer number 12925 under the jurisdiction of Electrical Section, Vaduthala. The appellant approached the respondent for shifting an electric line passing through the north eastern corner of his property. Since no action was taken in the matter, the appellant filed a writ petition in W.P. (C) No.5889/2015 before the Hon. High Court of Kerala. The matter was referred to the Additional District Magistrate by the Hon. High Court. The Additional District Magistrate, in his order No. K.Dis/67018/2012MS dated 10-08-2015, dismissed the request of the appellant as having no merits, stating that the application for shifting of electric line to the adjacent pathway, which is outside of the property of the appellant is beyond the scope of Section 17 of the Indian Telegraph Act. Against this order of the District Collector the appellant filed WPC 18958/2016 before the Honourable High Court of Kerala and the Court vide judgment dated 20.6.2016 directed Additional District Magistrate to reconsider the matter and the same is under the consideration of Additional District Magistrate. Meanwhile the appellant approached the CGRF with the request for removal of the line drawn across his property between the posts MR 12/7 and GTW 27 and to take disciplinary action against the concerned officials of the KSEBL who cut and removed the trees without his permission. Hence this appeal is against the order dated 26-06-2018 of CGRF, Ernakulam, in the OP 137/2017-18, dismissing the complaint due to lack of merits, filed before it. From the findings and conclusions arrived at as detailed above, I decide as follows. Whenever the dispute regarding the shifting of electric line through the eastern side of the property of the appellant before the District Magistrate is settled, the respondent shall consider the request for rearranging the line in the northern side of the property subject to the technical feasibility for the shifting by realizing the labour charges. Having concluded and decided as above it is ordered accordingly. The Appeal Petition filed by the Consumer is allowed as ordered and stands disposed of as such. The order of CGRF in 137/2017-18 dated 26-06-2018 is set aside. No order on costs. |

The appellant runs a Tourist Home in the name "Green Park Residency" at Thavakara bearing Con. No. 1166558009208 under the jurisdiction of Electrical Section, Burnassery. Electricity supply to this premises is given in three phases with a registered load of 32105watts and in LT VII A tariff. While so, on 08-02-2018, the APTS of KSEBL conducted an inspection in the premises and found that the energy used in one phase (out of 3 phases) was not recording in the meter. Accordingly, the appellant was served with a short assessment bill, for the non functioning of CT in B phase for two years, so as to recover the unrecorded portion of energy, for Rs. 5,11,807/-. Being aggrieved with the short assessment, the consumer approached the CGRF, Northern Region, with Petition No. 208/2017-18 and the Forum disposed of the petition on 31-05-2018 upholding the decision of the respondent. Aggrieved by the decision, the appellant has submitted the Appeal petition before this Forum. From the findings and conclusions arrived at as detailed above, I decide to set aside the short assessment bill amounting to Rs. 5,11,807/- issued to the appellant. The respondent is directed to revise the bills for the consumption for the period of one year prior to the inspection dated 08-02-2018 by taking an average consumption of 6027 units i.e. the average consumption of 05/2018 for 8620 units, 06/2018 for 4400 units, and 07/2018 for 5060 units. Accordingly the respondent shall raise a bill for the meter faulty period and issue the revised bill to the consumer within fifteen days from the date of receipt of this order. Having concluded and decided as above it is ordered accordingly. The Appeal Petition filed by the Consumer is allowed as ordered and stands disposed of as such. The order of CGRF in 208/2017-18 dated 31-05-2018 is set aside. No order on costs. |
