This is not the first time that the society’s managing committee has asked the power company to shift the transformers. In fact, BSES had replied to the earlier letter.

The letter read: “Oil-filled transformers can be replaced with dry transformers, and the additional cost for will be shared by both BSES and the society equally.” It further said that if the society wanted to shift them from the basement to an open space, the committee would need to bear the additional cost for shifting. visitor management system
Umesh Gupta, a resident of the society, said, “Our committee tried hard to find a place outside the society, but the MCD did not allow us. Therefore, we decided to shift these transformers from the basement to an open place within the society. We have enough space. But the BSES should tell us how much the transfer will cost.”
He added, “These transformers are a life threat. Residents normally park their vehicles close to these transformers — and it can prove fatal any day.”
