1,000 Pattaya residents unplugged by wire fire

PATTAYA:-- Utility companies were called out to reconnect about 1,000 Pattaya residents to their televisions and internet after wires caught fire near the Sawangfa Temple Bridge.

 

Telephone, internet and cable-television technicians were summoned July 1, three days after the cables caught fire leaving the neighborhood unplugged.

 

Some techs had shown up the day after the fire, but didn’t finish the job due to continuing electricity outages that even affected traffic lights.

 

The Provincial Electricity Authority fixed the power problems, but it took loud complaints from bored residents to get the utility companies to attend to their internet and cable-TV customers.

The outage of traffic lights has not been noticed by Thai drivers.

Or the cables are old and weather took his toll for long time

Or somebody is using more power then the cables can handle

wait and see when cables are restored
