Electricity today is a very important source of life. Almost all life activities depend on electricity. Power cuts or power outages cause some activities to stop.

In addition, there are causes outside of electrical activity, namely the occurrence of fire disasters. To avoid things that are not desirable, of course, must be quick to respond to this by turning off electricity en masse. What can happen, of course, is that neither party benefits.
