Thank you for this tour of Old Delhi. Whenever I see the tangle of electrical wires in the old neighborhoods I wonder how this seemingly haphazard system could possibly work. Obviously it does. How is electric service paid for? Is usage measured with a meter and billed to the user? Or is it taxed to building owners and included in rent? Are there many unauthorised connections? Fires from poor wires doesn't seem to be a concern. Please help me understand how this system works.
Thank you for your curiosity about the electrical wires in Old Delhi. The system may look haphazard, but it's indeed functional. - BSES Yamuna Power Limited (BYPL) is the electricity distribution company responsible for supplying power to the Chandni Chowk area in Old Delhi. - Electric service is paid for through metered connections, with usage billed to individual users or building owners. - Unauthorized connections do exist, but efforts are made to minimize them. - Fire risks are a concern and authorities take measures to prevent accidents. - Regular maintenance and upgrades are done to ensure safety. In Old Delhi, many buildings have multiple tenants, making metering and billing complex. Some buildings have a single connection, with costs split among tenants. Others have individual meters. Despite the challenges, the system works, and power supply is generally reliable. However, there's always room for improvement, and efforts continue to enhance safety and efficiency. I hope this helps you understand the electrical wiring system in Old Delhi.

Thank you.

हम न बदलेंगे वक़्त की रफ़्तार के साथ,
जब भी मिलेंगे अंदाज पुराना होगा।
