DAVAO CITY, June 15 – Davao Light and Power Company will conduct two 15-minute switching power interruptions affecting customers situated in the downtown areas of the electric utility's franchise area.
Corporate Communications Officer Ross Luga said that the service interruptions are necessary to allow Davao Light to conduct preventive maintenance servicing in its R. Castillo Substation.
To keep the power interruptions within the least possible time, loads connected to the R. Castillo substation will be transferred to nearby substations which will take place on May 17, Sunday, from 4:00 a.m. to 4:15 a.m.
Normalization or return of loads back to its normal set-up will be on May 18, Monday, from 5:00 a.m. to 5:15 a.m. after maintenance works will be completed.
Affected by these power interruptions are the customers residing from Bajada Power Plant going to Lanang up to corner Guadalupe Subd., including its internal areas & portion of Cabaguio Avenue.
Similarly affected are customers from Arroyo St. up to Belisario Village along R. Castillo St. which also includes Brgy. San Juan, Ubalde Agdao.
Davao Light apologizes for the inconvenience of these scheduled power interruptions but it will exert all efforts to restore electric service as scheduled or earlier. However, there may be instances where restoration may extend beyond the schedule due to unavoidable circumstances.
The electric utility's Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition (SCADA) allows Davao Light to remotely control switches in the substations and along the distribution lines making it efficient in implementing maintenance works or restoration of power supply at its barest minimum during service interruptions.
