The Transmission Company of Nigeria (TCN), says repairs will commence on the Ugwuaji–Apir 330 Kilo-Volt (KV) Double Circuit transmission line Thursday following discovery of a fault at the Igumale area of Benue.

The company said that a team of linesmen from TCN discovered the fault on the line, at about 5pm on Wednesday.

Mrs Ndidi Mbah, TCN’s General Manager, Public Affairs, said this in a statement in Abuja on Thursday.

Mbah said that the faulty area of the transmission line, which measures about one span, was found to be a snapped 330kV transmission line located in the swampy forest of Igumale.

”Having made the discovery earlier in the evening of Wednesday, arrangements are already ongoing to mobilise equipment and materials that would be moved to the site of the incident to commence repair works.

”Due to the difficult and swampy nature of the terrain, TCN would require to move a bulldozer and other materials for the repair works from Enugu Regional office.

”A Hiab vehicle will also be moved to Igumale to help TCN properly tension the transmission line,”she said.

Mbah recalled that on Oct. 21, the 215 kilometer Uguwaji–Apir Double Circuit transmission line tripped due to fault, causing forced power outage across the North East, North West and parts of the North Central.

She said that previous attempts by two dispatched teams to locate the cause of the forced outage were unsuccessful until Wednesday evening.

”TCN is committed to promptly addressing the situation and is urgently organising the necessary materials for the repair work.

”We appreciate the patience of the government and electricity customers in the affected states. Please bear with us,”she said
