The appellant is a domestic consumer bearing consumer number 1075 under Electrical Section, irinjalakkuda No.1. The appellant made a complaint to the Section Office relating the supply failure occurred in the premises due to burning of the fuse. Sri. Anilkumar, lineman was deputed to restore the supply. The allegation of the appellant is that due to personal grudge, the lineman broke open the terminal seal and replaced the fuse with new one. According to the appellant, for replacing the fuse, there is no need to open the terminal seal and the attitude of the lineman reveals nothing but an intentional attempt to implicate the appellant in criminal case alleging theft of energy. The appellant has filed this appeal petition with a request to take disciplinary action against Sri. K.K. Anilkumar, Lineman Gr. II, Electrical Section for misuse of official power. The CGRF, Ernakulam has dismissed the petition filed by the appellant in OP No. 57/2018-19 vide order dated 21-02-2019. Aggrieved by the decision of CGRF, the appellant has submitted the Appeal petition before this Authority. As this Authority has no power or jurisdiction to take disciplinary action or conduct enquiry against the staff of the licensee who had committed mal practices and negligence, it is held that the appeal petition filed by the appellant is not maintainable and hence dismissed. Having concluded and decided as above, it is ordered accordingly. The Appeal Petition filed by the appellant is rejected. The order of CGRF, Northern Region in Petition No. OP/57/2018-19/dated 21-02-2019 is upheld. No order on costs.

The appellant is a consumer under Electrical Section, Chadayamangalam having consumer number 11176. There was another electric connection in the premises with consumer number 11177 which was registered and owned by the appellant’s father in law, Sri. Sivadasan. The connection no.11177 was being used to pump water from the well. On 15-01-2018, the Assistant Engineer, Electrical Section, Chadayamangalam inspected the premises of the consumer number 11177 and detected that he had been using the energy bypassing the energy meter. Since it was found that the appellant was indulged in theft of electricity through a tampered meter and hence he was penalized under Section 135 and 152 of Electricity Act 2003. The appellant has filed a petition before Consumer Grievance Redressal Forum Vydhyuthi Bhavanam, Kottarakkara as O.P. No. 139/2018 which was dismissed due to lack of jurisdiction vide order dated 02-02-2019. Aggrieved by the order of the CGRF, the appellant has submitted this appeal petition before this Forum. Since in this case, the grievance has arisen out of the detection of theft and the penal assessment made and compounding of the offences under Section 135 and 152 of Electricity Act, 2003, it is clear that the petition itself is not maintainable before the CGRF or the Electricity Ombudsman as per the KSERC Regulations. That is any dispute or complaints pertaining to such matters are not maintainable before the CGRF and Electricity Ombudsman, as per Clause 2(1)(f)(vii)(1) of KSERC (CGRF & Electricity Ombudsman) Regulations, 2005. Hence I decide that the Appeal Petition filed before this Authority by the appellant is not maintainable. Having concluded and decided as above, it is ordered accordingly. The Appeal Petition filed by the appellant stands disposed of with the said decisions. No order on costs.

In pursuant to the Order No. P/27/2018 dated 11-07-2018 issued in appeal petition No. P/027/2018 filed by Smt. Lekshmi T, now it has come to the notice of this Authority that a clerical error was crept in the said order. In page 9 of the order, in the first paragraph in the “Decision” part, it has been stated that “The respondent is directed to revise the bills for the consumption for the period of 24 months prior to 04/2014 by taking an average consumption of 2820 units i.e. the average consumption of 03/2014, 02/2014 and 01/2014’’. There is a clerical error occurred due to oversight on the above sentence of the Decision which has to be corrected. Hence the above portion is corrected as follows: “The respondent is directed to revise the bills for the consumption for the period of 24 months prior to 10/2017 by taking an average consumption of 2820 units i.e. the average consumption of 03/2014, 02/2014 and 01/2014’’   There is no other modification in the said order dated 11-07-2018 except the portion modified above. Having corrected as above it is ordered accordingly. Dated the 29th April 2019.
