The Authority monitors the commitment of service providers to implement the provisions of the guide on a regular basis, and if the service provider refuses to compensate, the consumer has the right to file a complaint with the Authority.<\/p>\n<p>The Authority explained that the issuance of the Guaranteed Standards Guide comes as an extension of the structural and organizational reforms of the electricity sector in the Kingdom, and contributes to incentivizing the service provider to upgrade the electrical service, according to the best standards in terms of quality, efficiency and reliability.<\/p>\n<p>And she called <span style=\"color: #800000\"><strong><a style=\"color: #800000\"
