Zambo Peninsula and portions of Northwestern Mindanao experience a blackout.
Two lines of the National Grid Corporation of the Philippines (NGCP) tripped off on Monday, cutting off power to the Zamboanga Peninsula and other areas of Northwestern Mindanao.
The “partial system blackout” impacting Northwestern Mindanao communities, according to Elizabeth Ladaga, NGCP public affairs officer for Western Mindanao, happened when the Baloi-Aurora 138-KiloVolt (KV) and Agus 5-Aurora 138-KV lines simultaneously tripped at 10 a.m.
Zamboanga del Norte Electric Cooperative, Zamboanga City Electric Cooperative, Zamboanga del Sur Electric Cooperatives 1 and 2, Misamis Occidental Electric Cooperatives 1 and 2, and Lanao del Norte Electric Cooperative were the seven electric cooperatives that were impacted.
In a text message, Ladaga stated that “Loss of power was experienced in NGCP’s Aurora, Pitogo, Zamboanga, Polanco, and NagaMin sub-stations.”
She reported that at 10:27 a.m., the Baloi-Aurora 138-KV line was re-energized, restoring transmission services to certain impacted locations.
“Line patrol is ongoing along the Agus 5-Aurora 138-KV line,” she added.
Zamcelco’s power service in the city restarted just before noon.
On October 24, an explosion that destroyed Tower No. 8 of the Baloi-Aurora 138-KV line in Barangay Bagumbayan, Kauswagan, Lanao del Norte, caused power service to be interrupted in Zamboanga Peninsula and other areas of Northwestern Mindanao.
