In a significant ruling, the Tamil Nadu Electricity Ombudsman has mandated separate domestic electricity connections for independent floors, in accordance with the 2022 tariff order. This decision comes in response to complaints lodged against the Tamil Nadu Generation and Distribution Corporation Limited (TANGEDCO) for refusing to provide connections in buildings owned by a single individual. The Ombudsman’s ruling overturns a previous order by a consumer forum and sets a precedent for cases like the one involving I John Bosco in Nagercoil. This development underscores the importance of ensuring fair access to electricity for all residents, particularly those living in multi-storey buildings with independent floors.
