Poland: Power transmission by a 600 MW undersea cable between Sweden and Poland was restored after an outage, a spokesman for grid operator PSE has stated.
Planned maintenance of the cable began last month and it had been expected to be back in operation on 9th October evening.
The delay was not due to a fault with the cable itself but because low oil levels had been discovered at a substation in Sweden, a spokesperson for Swedish power grid operator Svenska Kraftnat said.
The outage started at 11 p.m. on 9th October, according to a market message published by PSE on the Gas Inside Information Platform late on the same day. The cable is set to be back on line at midnight on 10 October, it said.
The power line crosses the damaged Nord Stream pipelines beneath the Baltic Sea and had been checked last week by Polish and Swedish grid operators and was found to be intact.
