NGCP: Power outage in parts of Bukidnon due to line tripping

A power line trip caused a power outage in parts of Bukidnon province before dawn Tuesday, the National Grid Corp. of the Philippines said.

 

In an advisory, the NGCP said it is working to replace old and pollution-affected insulators of five structures along the Maramag-Malaybalay 69-kilovolt line.

 

The NGCP said this is located in the vicinity of Crystal Sugar in Poblacion Maramag, Bukidnon.

 

Citing initial information, it said the line tripped at 3:02 a.m. Tuesday, affecting Malaybalay and Valencia Cities and parts of Bukidnon.

 

It said power transmission service was partially restored at 4:11 a.m., and complete restoration is expected by noon. —Joel Locsin/KG, GMA News
