On Lantern Festival, Feb 12, as the lights begin to twinkle across every corner of the city, the colorful illumination intertwines, creating a sea of light. High-rise buildings are silhouetted by the lights, and the streets are bustling with traffic, with car headlights and street lamps reflecting each other. The neon lights on the square twinkle and dance, framing the happy smiling faces of the people. Lights not only illuminate the city's night but also impart it with unique charm and vitality, becoming a symbol of urban prosperity.

To ensure the safety and reliability of the power supply, the State Grid Jinchang Power Supply Company has implemented multiple measures to guarantee power supply. Based on the recent weather conditions and actual power consumption, the company has formulated a power guarantee plan. Detailed arrangements have been made for power conservation and protection during Lantern Festival, covering various aspects such as grid operation, power monitoring, and equipment operation and maintenance. Additionally, load forecasting has been conducted in advance, laying a solid foundation for the stable operation of the Jinchang power grid and reliable power supply.

The company's staff members intensified their inspections of the equipment within their jurisdiction, conducting a comprehensive investigation of equipment conditions to prevent flashover accidents. They primarily focused on measuring the temperature of key components prone to overheating, including cable heads, neutral terminals, and disconnectors in the 0.4 kV distribution box. They also carefully checked the equipment for issues such as heating and burns, meticulously recording temperature measurement times, ambient temperatures, load conditions and other relevant data. Additionally, they conducted real-time monitoring of various operating equipment in critical locations to promptly identify and eliminate potential hazards. Simultaneously, the emergency repair team was arranged to be on standby 24/7, equipped with emergency vehicles, supplies, and repair equipment, ensuring comprehensive preparedness for sudden power outages.

In addition to daily maintenance and emergency repairs, power workers also pay special attention to the power needs of vulnerable groups. The elderly who stay at home without their children often encounter various electricity-related issues in their daily lives. Power workers proactively visit their homes to inspect electrical wiring, replace aging electrical equipment, and patiently instruct the elderly on how to use electricity safely. During Spring Festival, they also bring New Year's greetings and consolation to the elderly, ensuring that they feel the care from society during this special time. These small actions embody great warmth, like the warm sunshine in winter, illuminating the lives of the elderly who stay behind.

They utilize advanced technological means to achieve intelligent management of the power grid, monitor its operation status in real-time, and proactively identify and address potential issues. Additionally, they have introduced a series of convenient service measures, such as online payment and fault reporting, allowing people to enjoy more efficient and convenient power services.
