KANO — The Transmission Company of Nigeria (TCN) has announced the successful completion of planned annual preventive maintenance at the Kumbotso 132kV Transmission Substation in Kano State, restoring power supply to key industrial zones.
In an official statement signed by its management on Monday, TCN confirmed that the maintenance work—conducted on Sunday, November 8, 2026—was completed at 5:17 pm on the same day.
The routine exercise targeted a 60MVA 132/33kV power transformer, its associated earthing transformer, and switchgear bay equipment, while also facilitating the replacement of a faulty 33kV Gaida Feeder Circuit Breaker.
Following the completion of the technical repairs, power supply has been restored across the 33kV Dangote, Gaida, and Spanish 2 feeders. The Kano Electricity Distribution Company (KEDCO) has subsequently resumed off-taking electricity for onward delivery to commercial and residential customers around the Sharada Industrial Zone.
TCN expressed appreciation to electricity consumers for their patience and cooperation throughout the maintenance window, reiterating its ongoing commitment to enhancing the reliability and efficiency of the national transmission infrastructure.
