Kathmandu, August 13: Problem has surfaced in the power supply as incessant rains across the country have inundated the different power supply structures.
Nepal Electricity Authority (NEA) reports its 132 KV substation based in Duhabi has been submerged while its Anarmani-Kaweli 132 KV transmission line’s tower collapsed.
Similarly, the Khimti-Dhalkebar transmission line has met with problems while Hetauda-Chandranigahapur-Dhalkebar transmission line was affected by a fall of big trees.
The NEA through a notice this evening said problems have been seen in other substations and distribution centers located in other flood-affected areas, causing an obstruction in the supply system.
Incessant rains in the east and central Nepal for the past few days have caused major damages to the NEA structures including transmission line, substations and distribution system and repair works are going in full swing, the NEA stated in the notice, apologising for inconveniences facing customers due to the disruption in power supply.
It has called on costumers to consider the adversity facing it at this moment and expected restraint from them. RSS
