Imphal, January 20 2014 :
All 11 KV Switchgears in 132/33/11KV Control Room at Yurembam have been burned down beyond repair and the adjacent 33 KV Control and Relay Panels of the outgoing 33KV lines were also affected by the fateful fire incident on Jan 19 .
The State Electricity dept has informed power consumers that restoration of 11KV Switchgear by installing a new set is being initiated which is likely to take a week's time.
A statement issued by the CE (Power) said that the dept would not be in a position to provide normal power supply during the repairing period to the areas covered by 11KVs Eastern, Western, Tiddim, Industrial, CRPF Feeders etc of 132/33/11KV sub-station, Yurembam.
The dept expressed deep regrets for the inconvenience.
