The Transmission Company of Nigeria, TCN attributes the temporary disturbance on the National grid witnessed earlier in the day to explosion at a transformer in Jebba transmission substation

TCN says engineers responded swiftly and activated the protection system which promptly opened the busbars to curtail the explosion, thereby preventing outbreak of fire and further damage to adjacent equipment.

The action of the protection system led to a temporary disturbance on the grid.

TCN notes that its team of engineers at Jebba successfully carried out switchings, isolating the faulty current transformer and equally reconfigured the busbar arrangement, restoring power supply to the station, and other parts of the grid.
