PT PLN (Persero) has urged customers to ensure electrical conditions\nin their homes remain safe before leaving their residences for mudik\nduring the 1447 Hijrah Idul Fitri celebration.<\/p>\n
Executive Vice President of Corporate Communication and Corporate\nSocial Responsibility at PLN, Gregorius Adi Trianto, emphasised the\nimportance of checking electrical installations and electronic equipment\nbefore homes are left unoccupied for extended periods.<\/p>\n
\u201cMudik is a moment anticipated by many families. Before departing,\nensure that the home you are leaving behind is in safe condition,\nincluding electrical installations and electronic equipment. This way,\ncustomers can reunite with family with greater peace of mind without\nworry,\u201d said Gregorius.<\/p>\n
He explained that this step is crucial to avoid potential short\ncircuits and other electrical disturbances that may occur when homes are\nunoccupied.<\/p>\n
As a precautionary measure, PLN has shared several tips to keep\nelectricity safe during mudik. First, customers must ensure that\nelectrical installations in their homes are in good working condition.\nSecondly, unplug all electronic equipment from power outlets to prevent\nunnecessary electrical flow whilst reducing the risk of electrical\ndisruptions.<\/p>\n
Additionally, customers are advised to use lighting as needed, such\nas porch or yard lights, to maintain home security. The use of lights\nwith automatic sensors can also be an option to improve energy\nefficiency.<\/p>\n
PLN also reminds postpaid electricity customers to ensure that bills\nhave been paid before the due date to avoid fines or service\ndisconnection. Meanwhile, prepaid customers should ensure that\nsufficient electricity credit is available during the mudik period to\nmaintain electrical supply.<\/p>\n
Should electricity needs increase in their hometowns, customers can\nalso request a power capacity increase according to their\nrequirements.<\/p>\n
For service convenience, PLN encourages customers to utilise the PLN\nMobile application. Through this application, customers can conduct\nvarious transactions such as purchasing electricity credit, paying\nbills, applying for new connections, requesting power increases, and\nreporting electricity disruptions.<\/p>\n
\u201cPLN continues to provide convenience to customers through PLN\nMobile. All electricity services can now be accessed in the palm of your\nhand, whenever and wherever. If there is a disruption, simply report it\nthrough the application and our officers will immediately follow up,\u201d\nconcluded Gregorius.<\/p>", "url": "https:\/\/jawawa.id\/newsitem\/pln-shares-safe-electrical-practices-during-mudik-1773741998", "image": "" }, "sponsor": "Okusi Associates", "sponsor_url": "https:\/\/okusiassociates.com" }
