Replacing damaged fuses with other metallic objects can compromise the entire circuit. We recommend replacing fuse with fuses of identical ratings.

Tilted and Fallen Poles
Tilted, broken and fallen poles pose a great hazard to us and the environment we live in.
Fallen poles can still be energised leading to electrocution and electrical fires, hence, the need to identify it and report immediately.
Tilted, broken and fallen poles pose a great hazard to us and the environment we live in.
Fallen poles can still be energised leading to electrocution and electrical fires, hence, the need to identify it and report immediately.
Factors that could lead to above scenario include:
a. Weakened wooden poles as a result of aging and exposure to the elements.
b. Broken concrete poles due to vehicles ramming into it.
c. Loose soil texture could cause poles to tilt and eventually fall.
