The historical residence, a traditional wooden structure housing nearly 160 pieces of calligraphy and artwork, requires electrical supply stability and stringent fire prevention measures. With an expected surge in visitors, the local power load is projected to increase significantly.

During the inspection, State Grid staff performed a comprehensive check of the facility's electrical systems, including wiring inspection, and thermal and technical monitoring. 

To bolster long-term safety, the team provided a customized "Electricity Safety Guide for Historic Buildings," specifically addressing fire prevention and the maintenance of high-power appliances.

The power inspection at Xie Yun's residence was part of a broader effort by State Grid Longgang to support the city's cultural tourism sector. As Longgang enhances its infrastructure and diversifies its tourism offerings, the power company has proactively engaged with key scenic spots and cultural venues to bolster up the development of Longgang's tourism industry.

State Grid Longgang Power Supply Company plans to strengthen support for the local tourism sector by establishing routine inspection mechanisms and improving services.
