Energy theft

 

People who steal energy are exposed to serious accidents and may be economically and legally punished.

Why is it dangerous?

  • Because the electric networks and meters clandestinely manipulated become a deadly trap when a weather phenomenon, like rain, flooding, etc. occurs.

  • Because the person who steals energy is risking his/her life and that of his/her family, neighbors and friends.

  • Because when energy is stolen, distribution lines are overloaded, and this may cause damage to your electric appliances and even fires or serious accidents.

  • Because the electrical networks deteriorate and may cause black outs given that each one is designed for a specific capacity.

  • Because it is unfair, while there are too many people struggling to pay their bills, others misuse their supply and damage the networks clandestinely and without paying.

  • Because it is an offense punished by law.

  • And because theft hinders the delivery of electricity to more households.

Be alert!

  • In Luz del Sur, we have sophisticated detection equipment that allows us to identify clandestine interventions in the electric networks and meters.

  • To provide safety, electric cables have very sensitive devices that trigger an automatic protection mechanism : when they make contact with any strange element, a power cut occurs in the entire neighborhood.

  • Moreover, Luz del Sur has qualified personnel and unexpected control inspections are periodically carried out.

However, in Luz del Sur, we provide economic and legal facilities for those who steal electricity and wish to regularize their situation.
