Adani Electricity Mumbai Ltd (AEML) observed National Lineman Day on Saturday, March 4, 2023, felicitating its linemen, in an expression of gratitude.
Linemen are responsible for the installation, repair, maintenance of underground/overhead electrical power lines and auxiliary equipment. Additionally, they dig trenches for installation of underground lines, installation of meters, climb poles to repair overhead lines and inspect power lines for repair or replacement. They ensure lighting up our homes and lives through reliable power supply.
Mumbai’s reliable and uninterrupted power supply would not be possible without the critical role played by Linemen. March 4 also signifies the start of National Safety Week which is observed across India, a release from AEML said.
Linemen were felicitated based on domain knowledge, adherence of safety practices, and technical competence.
