PANGANDARAN, Thecuy.com – Public infrastructure assets in Pangandaran Regency have been disturbed once more.

This time, the grounding cable on the Public Street Lighting (PJU) facilities is suspected of being stolen. Even though the street lights are still functioning normally, the act poses a serious threat to the safety of the electrical installation.

The Pangandaran Regency Transportation Agency (Dishub) did not remain passive. The suspected theft of the grounding cable has been reported to the police for further action.

Dinas PUTR Kota Tasikmalaya prepares waste fat processing, targeting restaurants and hotels; waste management becomes the key to a healthy Tasikmalaya city, with FKS strengthening movements in Kawalu and Tamansari.

The Secretary of the Pangandaran Regency Transportation Agency, Ghaniyy Fahmi Basyah, emphasized that the loss of the grounding cable does not directly affect the on/off state of the PJU lights. Until now, all street lights are reported to be functioning normally with a 100 percent lighting level.

However, the fact that the lights remain bright does not mean the problem can be taken lightly.

“The grounding cable does not affect whether the lights are on or off. However, the act constitutes interference with the assets and facilities of the street lighting infrastructure intended for public benefit,” he said when contacted on Thursday (12/11/2026).

According to Ghaniyy, the theft of grounding cables is not just a matter of material loss. The component serves a crucial role as a safety system for PJU installations, especially to protect against lightning strikes and prevent electrical disruption risks.

The loss of this safety component could potentially cause regional losses while threatening the safety and security aspects of the electrical installation.

“In addition to causing potential regional losses, the theft of grounding cables can also disrupt the safety and security aspects of the PJU electrical installation,” he explained.

The Pangandaran Transportation Agency hopes that the report submitted to the Pangandaran Police will be promptly followed up with an investigation. The step is necessary to uncover those responsible and prevent similar actions from recurring.

The Tasikmalaya City PUTR Agency prepares a 50 liter per second water supply system, targeting central assistance; the settlement budget at the Tasikmalaya City PUTR Agency is adjusted, with some jobs shifted to 2027.

On the other hand, the public is asked to monitor the presence of public facilities. Because theft of infrastructure components not only harms the regional government but can also endanger the public as users of the facilities.

“Let us together safeguard and protect public facilities. Because infrastructure built for the benefit of the people is our collective responsibility,” he concluded. (deni nurdiansah)
