The Transmission Company of Nigeria (TCN) has announced a scheduled maintenance exercise on its 132kV Ughelli/Effurun transmission line bay equipment, which will disrupt electricity supply to parts of Delta State on Tuesday, November 10, 2026.
The maintenance, scheduled to take place between 10:00 a.m. and 3:00 p.m., will be carried out by TCN’s Delta Sub-Region maintenance crew as part of its annual preventive maintenance programme.
Consequently, the Benin Electricity Distribution Company (BEDC) will be unable to receive electricity from the transmission network for onward distribution to customers in Enerhen, Sapele, Osubi, Effurun, PTI, PSML, Refinery 1 and 2, Warri and surrounding communities during the exercise.
TCN, in a statement signed by its management on Monday, November 9, apologised to electricity consumers in the affected areas for the inconvenience the planned maintenance would cause.
The company said the exercise was part of its efforts to ensure the continued reliability and efficiency of the nation’s electricity transmission infrastructure.
