From David Onuoja, Abuja

The Transmission Company of Nigeria (TCN), has announced that it is undertaking an upgrade of its 2x45MVA to 2x100MVA Power Transformers at its Agbara 132/33kV Transmission Substation in Ogun State, under the Lagos Region.

The upgrade which is aimed at increasing the substation’s capacity to meet the growing electricity demand in Agbara and its environs, was driven by industrialisation in the area.

In a press release today by the General Manager in charge of Public Affairs, Ndidi Mbah, said when the upgrading is completed, three additional feeders will be radiated from the upgraded transformers, enabling Eko Electricity Distribution Company to increase supply to its customers in the area.

The TCN however, said that, to minimise disruption, the Company is replacing one 45MVA power transformer with a 100MVA transformer, with the second one still in the circuit to ensure minimal load shedding during the upgrade.

Saying, once it is completed and energised, the second 45MVA transformer will then be upgraded to 100MVA, increasing the substation’s total capacity from 150MVA to 260MVA.

Transmission Company also appealed to electricity consumers taking supply from Agbara 132/33kV Transmission Substation, to bear with them during the upgrade period, as there may be temporary load shedding.

Assuring the public of normal electricity supply, which it said, will be restored as soon as the upgrade is completed.
