The Transmission Company of Nigeria says it has restored the 330 kilovolt Shiroro-Mando Transmission Line 1, which is now operational.

In a statement on Monday by its spokeswoman, Ndidi Mbah, TCN said that the line was restored following the completion of repair works undertaken by the company’s engineers.

It also said that with the restoration of the line, bulk power supply to the Kaduna Electricity Distribution Company had significantly improved, and power supply constraints previously experienced in the state had been alleviated.

”Meanwhile, repair works are ongoing on the 330kV Shiroro-Mando Transmission Line 2, and barring any unforeseen circumstances, restoration of power will be completed soon.

”This will further strengthen network redundancy and the overall system reliability.

”TCN appreciates the patience, understanding, and cooperation of its customers and stakeholders throughout this period and remains firmly committed to delivering stable and efficient transmission service nationwide,” the statement explained.
