TCN Transmission News
The Transmission Company of Nigeria (TCN) wishes to update the public on the ongoing restoration works along the 330kV Kainji–Birnin Kebbi Transmission Line, following the collapse of tower T367 along the line corridor, recently.
TCN hereby notes that significant progress has been recorded at the affected location in Yauri, where restoration activities are being carried out.
The collapsed transmission tower has now been completely dismantled and decommissioned, while the conductors and skywire have been properly aligned and prepared for the next stage of the restoration process.
In addition, an Emergency Restoration System (ERS) tower has been moved to the site and is ready for installation.
This will be followed by cable stringing and associated works towards the restoration of the affected transmission line.
Our engineers and technical personnel remain actively engaged at the site and are working hard to ensure a quick completion and restoration of the line.
TCN appreciates the patience and understanding of electricity consumers and other stakeholders affected by the incident and assures the public that every effort is being made to restore the line and consequently, normal bulk transmission as soon as possible.
