PHED Blames Windstorm For Power Outage In Rivers, Others

The Port Harcourt Electricity Distribution Company Plc (PHED) has blamed the current power outage being experienced in some parts of the city on the windstorm that occurred last week in Port Harcourt.
This was made known by the Manager, Corporate Communications PHED, Mr John Onyi, in Port Harcourt.
He stated that the windstorm which caused the falling of both high and low tension lines, affected the source of supply from Port Harcourt Main Transmission [Z2] and Port Harcourt Town Transmission [Z4] Stations.
“As a result, Woji, Abuloma, Rumuodomaya, Trans-Amadi, Rainbow, Rumuola and Airport 33kv feeders are out of supply.
“Also, at Port Harcourt Town Transmission Station, the entire station is down due to a fault on 132kv breaker which has affected Rumuolumeni, Borokiri, Amadi Junction, Secretariat, UST, UTC and Silverbird.
“Other areas are; Rumuosi, Rukpokwu, Greater Port Harcourt, UPTH, Bori, Igbo- Etche, Old Oyigbo, Onne, RSTV, and Timber 33kv feeders”, he said.
He added that Cross River State was not left out as Calabar, Amika and Akamkpa 33kv feeders were also affected when ornamental trees fell on top of the feeders which shattered various electrical materials.
According to Onyi, “Champion, Ibesikpo, Abak and Akara 33kv feeders belonging to Uyo Transmission Station were not left out in the natural disaster.
”In Yenagoa, Imiringi, Agudama, Amasoma, Opolo and Government House 33kv feeders were affected by the forced outage”.
The manager, however, said that efforts were already in top gear by PHED technical crew at the various cities to ensure that the faults were fixed in order to restore power to the affected areas.
“PHED, therefore, solicits the understanding and patience of the affected customers while waiting for restoration of power to the affected areas in spite of the statewide restriction of movement”, he said.
