Despite the warning signs "Do not approach, dangerous electricity can kill you", many people still deliberately stick advertising papers on the transformer station on Dao Tan Street (Tan Binh Ward, Hai Duong City).

On the transformer stations or electrical cabinets of Hai Duong Electricity Company Limited, there are signs "Do not approach, there is electricity, it is dangerous to die" or "Danger of high voltage" to help people see the level of danger. However, despite the danger and warnings, many people, even businesses, hire people to post advertisements such as: real estate consulting, room rental, moving house, industrial cleaning, forklift service, crane service... Even at some transformer stations, electrical cabinets, the danger warning signs are covered by trash advertisements.

Hai Duong Electricity One Member Co., Ltd. has sent officers and employees many times to remove the trash advertising on transformer stations and electrical cabinets, but it is still stuck back on.

Sticking junk advertisements on transformer stations not only spoils the aesthetic, poses a risk of electric shock, but also violates the law.

According to Clause 1, Article 34 of Decree 38/2021/ND-CP of the Government regulating administrative sanctions for violations in the fields of culture and advertising, the act of hanging, placing, pasting, or drawing advertising products on electric poles, traffic signal poles, and trees in public places... will be fined from 1-2 million VND.
