The Yangon Electricity Supply Corporation announced that due to the construction of the Phayagyi- Hlinethaya (500 kV) power line, some townships in Yangon Region will experience temporary power outages for four days.
During the construction period, the 230 kV Myaungtaga-Hlawga, Myaungtaga-Watarya, and Myaungtaga-Hlinethaya power lines will be shut down daily from 6 am to 5 pm from 12 to 15 July.
Therefore, during operations, the 33 kV feeders originating from the 230 kV Hlinethaya main station, 230 kV Myaungtaga main station, 230 kV Western University substation, and 230 kV Kanaung main station will need to regulate their loads. As a result, there will be temporary power outages in certain areas of the following townships and areas: Shwepyitha, Hlinethaya (East and West), Shwelinpan, Htantabin, Seikkyi-Khanaungto, Dala, Twantay, Lakkhokgon, Kungyangon, Kawhmu, Kyaikhtaw, Hline, Kamayut, and Mayangon.
In addition, YESC has informed the public that there will be no prolonged power outages, and efforts will be made to minimize the areas affected by power outages. — TWA/TKO
