Kathmandu. The Nepal Electricity Authority (NEA) has expedited the expansion of underground power lines in various parts of the Kathmandu Valley. In order to make the work of underground power line expansion safe and easy, the NEA has decided to shut down the power supply in various areas of the capital from November 29 to November 5.
The power supply will be disrupted for eight days as the wires have to be laid underground in various feeders under the NEA’s Kuleshwor and Baneshwor distribution centers. According to the NEA, the power supply will be affected from 10:30 am to 4 pm on the specified days.
According to the work schedule made public by the NEA, the power supply has been stopped in the High Vision Colony area under Balambu, Thankot and Matatirtha feeders today. Similarly, power supply will be disrupted from Kalanki Ring Road to Syuchatar Substation under Sitapaila feeder on October 30 and from Kalanki, Thankot and Kalanki Chowk to Dhunge Adda under ropeway feeder on October 29.
Similarly, power supply will be cut from Kalanki Ring Road to Syuchatar Substation under Baffle Feeder on November 3 and from UN Park to Bijuli Bazaar under Shankhamul Feeder on November 3. According to NEA, power supply will be cut off from Dhaulagiri Awas and Matatirtha PSS area under Satungal feeder on November 2 and 20 and Hazma Bridge area under Syuchatar SS feeder on November 2.
The NEA has made it clear that if the weather is unfavorable, this schedule can be canceled or changed. The authority has urged the consumers to be aware of the inconvenience that will be faced during this period as the work of laying the line underground is being done to enhance the beauty of the city and to make the electricity distribution system safe.
