Raasi Power Systems

Our place is at No. 35/ 20 on the first floor of Karuneegar Street in Adambakkam. It is an old street and you have to climb a narrow set of stairs to reach us. It can get a bit humid here in Chennai, so the fan is always on full blast in the office. We deal with power systems, mostly things like inverters and batteries for when the electricity cuts out. The shelves are packed with different components and sometimes it takes a minute to find exactly what we are looking for. We spend a lot of time on the phone or just fixing units that people bring in from the neighborhood. Adambakkam is a busy area, and there is always noise coming from the street below. We’ve been here for a while and most of the locals know where to find us. It isn’t a massive corporate setup, just a practical space where we can get the repairs done and talk to customers. Sometimes the power goes out while we are working, which is a bit ironic, but we have our own backup systems to keep the lights on. We just try to be honest about what needs fixing and what doesn't. There is usually a bit of grease on our hands by the end of the day. It is straightforward work, and we like being part of the community here on Karuneegar Street. People often drop by just to say hello or ask for a bit of advice.
