In a significant ruling, the Tamil Nadu Electricity Ombudsman has mandated separate domestic electricity connections for independent floors in buildings. This ruling, based on the 2022 tariff order, comes in response to complaints filed against the Tamil Nadu Generation and Distribution Corporation Limited (TNGDCL) for denying connections in buildings with single owners. The Ombudsman’s decision overturns a previous order by a consumer forum and sets a precedent for cases like that of I John Bosco in Nagercoil. This ruling ensures that each floor of a building, owned separately, is eligible for its individual electricity connection, providing clarity and fairness in the distribution of electricity services in Tamil Nadu.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
