Will i successfully suing the landlord if i sue him for not maintain utilities with electricity?

will i be successfully suing the landlord if i sue him for not maintain utilities with electricity like refrigerator, air conditionar and so on?

You are either asking if he is suppose to maintain these appliances with electricity or maintain the appliances themselves and keep them in working order.

Landlords must maintain what are considered "essential" services and equipment. Electricity is an essential service and must be maintained if this was agreed upon in your tenancy agreement. If the appliances you mentioned are listed in your tenancy agreement as being included in the rent then he is obligated to maintain them in satisfactory working condition or replace them.

Yes, I believe you would be successful. Good luck

Only if the maintance is including with your rental agreement. Some add that it is your responsiblity, some say it is theirs and you are responsible for notifying them of any problems and allowing access to maintance crews so that they can be checked.
