Jakarta, CNBC Indonesia - In the last few days extreme weather marked by heavy rain accompanied by lightning and strong winds has hit the country, especially DKI Jakarta and its surroundings.The Meteorology, Climatology and Geophysics Agency (BMKG) previously issued an early warning for extreme weather occurring on October 2-8, 2022.In dealing with this extreme weather, PT PLN (Persero) also appealed to the public to be vigilant if the water rose and caused inundation because it could threaten safety."If water has entered the house, customers are advised to immediately turn off the electricity from the Miniature Circuit Breaker (MCB) to avoid the danger of electric shock because water is a conductor of electricity," said Executive Vice President of Corporate Communications and TJSL PLN, Gregorius Adi Trianto.Then, PLN urges customers to make sure to unplug all electronic equipment connected to the socket to avoid short circuits.In the event that there is a potential for puddles or water to rise, customers should place their electronic equipment in a safer and out of reach place.If there is a safety threat from the electricity network due to potential flooding or other extreme weather effects, the public can report and request a temporary cessation of electricity supply."People's safety is the most important thing. Therefore, when it rains heavily and causes flooding, the electricity has to be temporarily turned off," he said.PLN always works by prioritizing customer safety.In addition, it ensures superior service that will be normalized quickly in the event of disruption as a result of extreme weather."This is PLN's commitment to continue to maintain reliable electricity supply and operate optimally," he said.Furthermore, if you see a potential power failure, you can report directly to PLN through the Complaints Feature in the PLN Mobile application."As an anticipatory measure, we also appeal to the public to be willing to give up trees that are close to the PLN network to be trimmed or cut down so as to minimize the potential for electricity disturbances during extreme weather," he concluded.For information, the DKI Jakarta Regional Disaster Management Agency (BPBD) reported that puddles of water were still submerging a number of points in the capital until Friday (07/10/2022)."BPBD noted that previously inundation occurred in 11 RTs, now there are 5 RTs or 0.016% of the 30,470 RTs in the DKI Jakarta area," said Head of DKI Jakarta BPBD Isnawa Adji in his statement, Friday (7/10/2022).This is data for Friday, October 7 at 09.00 WIB.All puddles were affected in the West Jakarta area with water levels ranging from 30-40 cm.
