Philippines, Manila: Meralco recently commissioned its new 50 MVA transformer bank no. 2.
The Manila Electric Company, also known as Meralco, is an electric power distribution company in the Philippines.
The transformer has been delivered to in its 69 kV-13.8 kV Pulilan Substation located along the Plaridel-Pulilan Diversion Road in Pulilan, Bulacan.
This provided additional capacity to its existing 33 MVA transformer bank.
The project also provides switching flexibility during contingencies, ensuring continuous power supply of the customers served by the said substation in the areas of Pulilan, Bustos, Baliwag and Plaridel in Bulacan.
The newly installed transformer bank will also improve voltage regulation and reduce technical system loss in the area.
Despite the continued implementation of community quarantine measures throughout the country due to the COVID-19 pandemic, Meralco and its subsidiaries are continuously working hard to improve its distribution system in order to provide safe, adequate and reliable electric service to its customers.
