Located in the Chengshi Xinyuan residential community on Huaqiang Road, over a thousand households have been without electricity since the 17th, marking three days of outage by yesterday. Getting hot water has become a major challenge for residents, with people queuing up for water and occasionally sighing: "When will the power come back?" Ms. Li, a resident of Building 1 in the Chengshi Xinyuan community on Huaqiang Road, Xi'an, returned home from work on the evening of October 17th to find her home without power. Upon inquiring with the power supply bureau, she was told that the community's internal cable had malfunctioned and was under inspection. "The property management only said they were coordinating repairs, but didn't know when the power would be restored," Ms. Li said. By yesterday morning, the power still hadn't returned. Yesterday morning, at the entrance of Building 5 in the community, a reporter saw a long line of thermos bottles in front of the security guard's room, with people holding children and elderly leaning on canes, all queuing to get a pot of hot water to drink. The second phase of the community hasn't been connected to natural gas yet, so over a thousand residents rely entirely on electricity for boiling water and cooking. Among those waiting for water was a resident of Building 5 in the second phase, who said that with the recent cold weather, even a sip of hot water has become a luxury. "My mouth is so dry it's cracking. The property management bought a kettle and uses public power to boil water," she said. Boiling a pot takes 40 minutes, and sometimes just as it's your turn, the water runs out, and you have to wait again! A woman in her sixties, living in Building 6, said: "Adults can go without, but we need hot water to prepare milk for the kids. I'm home alone with the baby, so I have to carry both the pot and the child to get water. It's really inconvenient." A reporter saw a notice posted by the community's property management office that read: "Due to a power supply line fault, the community cannot receive normal electricity. We are currently investigating and repairing, but due to the complexity of the cable fault, it will take some time. We hope residents can arrange their lives accordingly and apologize for any inconvenience caused." According to a person in charge surnamed Wang from the property management office, after the power outage on the 17th, the power supply bureau's inspection found that the problem was with the cable under the newly paved asphalt road. There were indeed several breaks in the underground cable in the community. "The power supply bureau said the cable replacement and repair would cost nearly 100,000 yuan, plus the road surface treatment for excavation and backfilling, at least another 100,000 yuan. We are coordinating with the road construction party to resolve this," he said. Last night, a customer service representative from the power supply inquiry line told reporters that the cable had been connected by 8 PM and was undergoing cable testing, with power expected to be restored that night. As of 10 PM last night when the report was filed, the community had regained power.
