Summary

This video script emphasizes the importance of electrical safety during the rainy season, particularly when flooding occurs. It explains how water conducts electricity, potentially leading to dangerous situations if power is not turned off in flooded areas. The script advises actions like disconnecting electrical appliances, raising electronics to higher ground, and reporting issues to PLN’s contact center. It also explains the process of restoring electricity after flooding, including ensuring that installations are dry and safe before power is reconnected. The key message is collective responsibility for safety during flood-related electrical hazards.

Takeaways

• 😀 Water is a good conductor of electricity, so flooding can be very dangerous if power remains on.
• 😀 PLN (Indonesia's electricity company) collaborates with the community to turn off electricity during floods to prevent accidents.
• 😀 If a residential area is flooded, PLN will shut off the electricity for safety.
• 😀 The public is encouraged to report any ongoing electricity flow during floods to PLN through contact center 123.
• 😀 If a distribution substation is flooded but the surrounding area is not, PLN will still turn off the power in that substation.
• 😀 Shutting off electricity in a substation is a complex and gradual process that takes time.
• 😀 To prevent electric hazards during floods, turn off electricity in your home, unplug electrical appliances, and move electronics to higher ground.
• 😀 If electricity has not been cut off in flood-affected areas, immediately contact PLN's 123 service.
• 😀 If floodwaters continue to rise, evacuate to a safe area and contact local disaster response agencies.
• 😀 After the flood recedes, PLN needs time to clean and restore the distribution system. Ensure your electrical installations and appliances are dry before power restoration.

Q & A

Why is it important to turn off electricity during floods?

Water is an excellent conductor of electricity, so if electrical power is still on during a flood, it can cause dangerous electrical hazards and potentially fatal accidents.

What should you do if your area is flooded and the electricity is still on?

You should immediately report it to PLN via their contact center (123) so they can address the issue and ensure safety.

When does PLN turn off electricity during floods?

PLN will turn off electricity if customer homes or distribution substations are submerged in water to prevent electrical hazards.

What should be done with electrical appliances during a flood?

You should turn off electrical installations, unplug devices, and elevate electronics to prevent water damage and potential electrical accidents.

How does PLN shut off electricity in affected areas?

PLN uses a gradual process to turn off the electricity at distribution substations, which is more complex than simply turning off power at individual homes.

What is the homeowner's responsibility in preventing electrical accidents during a flood?

Homeowners are responsible for ensuring that electrical installations inside their homes are dry before power is restored by PLN after the flood.

How does PLN ensure safety after the floodwaters recede?

PLN will inspect and clean the distribution substations and check that all electrical installations are safe and dry before restoring power.

What is the role of the community in ensuring electrical safety during floods?

The community should be proactive in reporting any live electrical circuits during floods to PLN and help ensure that safety measures are followed in their areas.

What should you do if the power hasn't been turned off and your area is flooded?

Immediately contact PLN’s contact center (123) to report the situation so they can cut off the power and prevent potential electrical hazards.

Why is it necessary to elevate electronic devices during a flood?

Elevating electronics keeps them above the floodwater, reducing the risk of water damage and potential electrical accidents due to submerged devices.
