According to the Enugu Electricity Distribution, the Transmission Company of Nigeria’s planned outage on Saturday is intended for urgent maintenance.
The outage will allow TCN engineers to do repairs on their T1A 150MVA Power Transformer at their New Haven Station, Enugu, according to a statement released on Friday by Mr. Emeka Ezeh, Head of Corporate Communications at EEDC.
Ezeh claims that the Kingsway Line 1&2 33KV, New Haven 33KV, Government House 33KV, Independence Layout 33KV, and New NNPC 33KV feeders will all be impacted by the operation.
“Consequently, electricity supply to our customers in parts of Emene, entire 9th Mile and surrounding communities, New Haven, Independence Layout, Coal City Garden, GRA, Golf, areas behind Central Bank of Nigeria and others will be out.
“Customers, including those in Colliary, Constitution Road, Railway/Good shed, Western Avenue, Bank Avenue, Ridge Way, Club Road, Kingsway Way Road and Enugu Secretariat, Red Cross and Court Avenue will also be affected.
“People living in Fidelity Estate, Shoprite, Golden Royale, CBN Quarters, New Market, Works Road, Aguowa, Artisan Market, Asata, New Haven Market and environs will be without electricity supply during the maintenance,” he said.
The EEDC spokesman said the company would ensure “supply is restored once the maintenance is completed”.
