K-Electric (KE) urges citizens to prioritise safety and remain vigilant, particularly in areas where waterlogging becomes an issue, as moderate to heavy showers broke the spell of heat in the city on Tuesday. KE field teams remained on alert to monitor the situation and address any localised issues. The network remained stable and at the peak of the downpour, less than 175 of KE’s 2,100-plus feeders saw a temporary outage mainly due to safety reasons. These feeders were also quickly restored as rain stopped and safety clearances were received from the field teams. “Our foremost priority remains public and our staff’s safety,” said Imran Rana, KE spokesperson. “While our systems have remained stable, we urge citizens to adhere to safety protocols.” KE emphasises that public safety remains its foremost priority. Citizens are strongly advised to maintain safe distance from poles, meters, and service brackets. Avoid contact with broken or tangled internet and tv cables, including communication wires. Refrain from using illegal connections, encroachment or makeshift arrangements in flooded conditions.
