上海老旧居住区电力系统升级，将惠及300多万户家庭   2014-10-30

 

ELECTRICITY meters, fuseboxes and cables in some 6,500 old residential neighborhoods are being replaced to reduce power cuts.

Covering more than 3 million households, the work is set to be complete by 2017, said the Shanghai Electric Power Co yesterday.

Equipment to be replaced is found in communal areas in buildings mostly built before 2000. Many fail to meet standards and suffer more frequent malfunctions.
