Northeast-Jos-Gombe 330KV Line Restored – TCN

The Transmission Company of Nigeria (TCN), has said the Jos-Gombe 330 Kilo Volt (kV) Single Circuit Transmission line has been restored.

TCN said bulk supply was restored through the line on Tuesday at 9:37 pm.

TCN’s general manager, Public Affairs Ndidi Mbah, said this in a statement in Abuja on Wednesday.

She said that the line now wheels normal load allocation from the National Control Centre (NCC) to transmission substations in the North East.

The manager said it also wheels to distribution load centres for Kano and Jos DisCos to off take and distribute to its customers in the North East.

”We are thankful for every assistance rendered by the governors in the North East and patience displayed by all the affected electricity consumers.

”Our gratitude also goes to the security operatives who always escorted our contractor and staff to the sites of the incidents, as well as the contractor and TCN engineers,”she said.

She said that TCN is appealing to residents in communities hosting or close to power installations to be vigilant, and to report any act or suspicion of vandalism to security operatives.

Mbah said that this would help the company swiftly arrest the situation, so as to preserve our power transmission towers and lines nationwide.
