Nigeria: The Transmission Company of Nigeria (TCN) has announced installation of a new 33 kV power transformer and circuit breaker.
The new equipment will be carried out at its 30 MVA 132/33 kV power transformer in its Suleja 132/33 kV transmission substation.
These details have been disclosed in a press release by Ndidi Mbah, General Manager of Public Affairs, TCN.
Mbah has revealed that the installation works to be carried out in-house by TCN’s maintenance engineers will commence at 10:00 a.m. and will be completed by 6:00 p.m. on the same day.
The 45 MVA, 132/33 kV transformer 2 (TR2) located at the same substation will be temporarily interrupted for two hours within the proposed 6-hour time frame to ensure safe work space.
Consequently, there will be a planned interruption of bulk power supply to AEDC through the Suleja transmission substation, enabling TCN engineers to complete the installations. It is important to note that only 26 MW supplied at 33 kV to the Abuja Steel Company will be interrupted during the installation process.
TCN assures that supply will be restored through the substation after the engineers have completed installation works.
