Davao Light and Power Company will conduct rerouting of power lines due to the upcoming construction of Panabo Flyover.
For safety purposes, two 30-minute switching power interruptions will be necessary in implementing the said works.
To keep the power interruptions within the least possible time, loads connected to San Vicente Substation will be transferred to nearby substations which will take place on June 23, Saturday, from 11:30 p.m. to 12:00 p.m. Normalization or return of loads back to its normal set-up will be on the following day, June 24, Sunday, from 7:00 a.m. to 7:30 a.m. after maintenance works will be completed.
Affected by these power interruptions are the customers residing in some parts of Panabo and Carmen particularly the following areas of San Francisco, New Visayas, Southern Davao, Nanyo, San Francisco, New Pandan, Sto. Niño, Tubod in Carmen and its nearby environs.
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.
