TPSODL issues safety advisory for Festive Season 2025

Berhampur: With the festive season approaching, TP Southern Odisha Distribution Limited (TPSODL) has appealed to the people of Southern Odisha to celebrate with joy while staying safe and responsible. Festivals unite communities, and TPSODL has made arrangements to ensure a reliable power supply so that the celebrations remain bright and hassle-free. At the same time, the company has reminded everyone not to overlook basic electrical safety during the festivities.

To support the festivities, TPSODL is facilitating temporary electricity connections for pandals, community events, and cultural gatherings. These services can be easily accessed through TPSODL’s Section, Sub-division, and Division offices, or through its convenient self-service numbers. Event organizers have been advised to seek only licensed electricians for decorations and wiring, ensuring that all connections are secure and compliant with safety standards.

The company has appealed to consumers to take simple but vital precautions. Electrical wiring should be checked thoroughly, damaged cables must be replaced promptly, and proper earthing is essential for every installation. Overloading sockets and using substandard equipment could prove hazardous, while decorations must always be kept away from overhead power lines. TPSODL has also emphasized caution during immersion ceremonies, advising people to maintain safe distance from poles, transformers, and overhead lines, particularly when bursting crackers or handling tall structures.

Citizens have been requested to immediately report any unsafe condition or emergency to the nearest Fuse Call Centre or by calling the 24×7 Customer Care Toll-Free Numbers 1912 or 18003456797. TPSODL teams remain fully prepared to respond promptly and ensure public safety throughout the celebrations.

Extending his greetings, Amit Kumar Garg, CEO of TPSODL, said, “Festivals are a time of joy and togetherness. At TPSODL, our priority is to create a safe and reliable environment so that people can celebrate their festivities with joy and peace of mind. We appeal to everyone to observe simple safety measures so that this festive season remains truly bright and safe for all.”
