The Transmission Company of Nigeria states that the national grid experienced a partial disturbance at about 1;52 pm today, 5th November 2024.

This followed a series of lines and generators trippings that caused instability of the grid and, consequently, the partial disturbance of the system. The data from the National Control Centre (NCC) revealed that a part of the grid was not affected by the bulk power disruption.

In a statement issued by GM, Public Affairs, Ndidi Mbah,

“TCN engineers are already working to quickly restore bulk power supply to the states affected by the partial disturbance. Presently, bulk power supply has been restored to Abuja, at 2.49pm, and we are gradually restoring to other parts of the country.

We sincerely apologize for every inconvenience this may cause our electricity customers.
