Edeeste dismantles 500 illegal connections during operation in Los Mameyes

Santo Domingo – The Eastern Electricity Distribution Company (Edeeste) reported this Saturday that it operated to dismantle illegal connections in the Los Mameyes sector, intervening in 500 illegal connections used to steal energy irregularly.

The entity indicated in a statement that, during the operation, 385 users formalized by contracting the electricity service on a regular basis.

Edeeste adds that among the actions carried out is the installation of 10 concentrated height measurement (MCA) modules, a technology that allows more efficient and safer control of electricity consumption in difficult-to-access areas.

In addition, lamps were installed on narrow roads (alleys) to improve safety and visibility in the area, with a total investment of 2.9 million pesos so far.

With the measure, the electricity distribution companies (EDE) seek to reduce losses and promote safe connections that make the energy service more efficient.

“The EDEs call on illegal users to normalize their situation and be able to access the system regularly, thus avoiding criminal consequences and having their names appear on the list of electrical offenders,” the statement said.

“Edeeste reiterates its call to users who have not yet regularized their situation to do so as soon as possible, thus avoiding possible legal sanctions and contributing to the strengthening of the electricity network of their community,” the statement concludes.
