The Transmission Company of Nigeria, TCN has announced the upgrade of its  Egbin 330/132/33KV Transmission Substation with the installation of a 60MVA 132/33kV power transformer.

The Transformer, which was installed by TCN in-house engineers, was energized at about 13.05pm on the 2nd of March 2022. 

This was the disclosure and Ndidi Mbah, the General Manager, Public Affairs Unit of TCN, in a statement issued on Sunday, 6th March 2022 and a copy made available to journalists.



According to the statement, "with the 60MVA power transformer, the substation capacity to supply bulk electricity to Ikeja Electricity Distribution company has increased by 30MVA. This is because TCN has decommissioned an old 30MVA transformer within the substation, which will be serviced and moved to other areas within its network that has a history of minimal electricity demand.

"The substation capacity upgrade," according to the GM Public Affairs Unit, "will ensure that more power is made available for IKEDC to take to its franchise areas within Ijeda LCDA and Ikorodu Local Government area axis." The statement concluded.
