Faced with an acute shortage of electricity meters, the state electricity board (KSEB) has gone to the extent of advising consumers to procure meters from the open market for getting a new connection and replacing faulty meters. KSEB sources said the board had been finding it difficult to give connections within a month of submission of application, as directed by the Kerala State Electricity Regulatory Commission.
Applications for new connections pending with section offices range from 40 to 150. While 120 applications are pending with the Palluruthy section, the number is 40 under Vypeen section, sources said.
