asuustrike2009: lighting tends to incur excess voltage on the system, thereby effecting trip on the feeder. Some Operators will try to close again after 5mins, while some will leave to last until it stops raining. The trip could be caused by wind. Two wires meeting as a result will lead to tripping of feeder. Cable cut will also lead to tripping. Lolz @ strong politicians. This is Nigeria my brother. We love to impress. Now GEJ is in Kogi. Believe me, they are gonna supply today more than ever. |

adorable29: This so pathetic and unacceptable. Please, do you have a functioning and effective landlords association. Issues like this are left pending cos nobody cares most times. "I have my gen, so what the heck......" "I dont want NEPA wahala jare" "They wont do anything if we complain" "Who cares sef" These are some of the flimsy excuses people make. |

Enoquin: please, and the staff discredited what story with what reason? My brother, have you asked yourself this question? Why the increment in bill since Disco was taken over from the government? How will the Company get paid for the units being bypassed by customers? Truly stating, you are suffering for another man's sin. 80% if not 100%. |

KINGTELLER: Let everybody SAY NO TO BYPASSING and see things taking shape with less effort. Believe, more than 50% of the Consumers are paying less for consumption. I have not exonerated DISCO either. They have roles to play. Are you saying my points for sound delivery are invalid? |

Mrbigman1: I know of more than 50 transmission projects, but Generation. Most of these 132/33KV transmission stations are said to be powered by gas-powered generating plant. Only Transmission is under government as for now. |

Abiagirl777: pls, can I know the meter's reading when u came in newly and the current reading based in the last billing. some landladies and landlords shouldnt be trusted. Also ensure you dont have any leakage (tapping) and also be sure NOTHING was mistakenly left switched on while away. thanks. Hope you know that 702Naira charge per month is constant? |

The landlady might have been sold a meter with outstanding payment.. we need to be sure of that also.

Re: Reasons You Might Not Be Having Light (electricity): To A Layman Understanding by Abiagirl777(f): 5:13pm On Feb 04, 2015 |
ayobase: the 1st tym we moved in i saw 36kw/hr while others who came in months b4 us still had 3kw/hr,nov to feb 4th,it is at799kw/hr now. Secondly they give us estimated bills,we've been unable to locate metre readings on. Mind you,it was a senior PHCN officer dat cald our attention to how our metre was running. |

Abiagirl777: I can still remember a neighbour's meter that had to be readjusted. it was running 360° within 5 seconds. You might be a victim of refurbished meter. Most of these meters being sold are old (u should see NEPA inscribed on it). 99% of them were damaged, repaired and sold out by some staff. About 10 were evacuated from store today to be repaired and sold out. if thisis the case, then u should take more of the blame. u never informed the Disco staff you are travelling. he cones to take reading and bill accordingly. I still wanna believe the meter shouldn't read since there wasn't load on it. estimated bills despite metering? you guys really need to solve this case out with the officers amicably. both parties share faults. and there was 36kw/hr on it when u newly came in. who used that unit? |
Re: Reasons You Might Not Be Having Light (electricity): To A Layman Understanding by ayobase(m): 12:02am On Feb 05, 2015 |
Abiagirl777: It should be from the metre dear. try settle matter amicably without you giving in to blame. |

ayobase:Why is our phase always tripping out on the transformer making others with multiple phase to have light and we won't? And why is a mere curled up copper serving as a fuse inside our transformer's fuse box or whatever the name is? |
Re: Reasons You Might Not Be Having Light (electricity): To A Layman Understanding by ayobase(m): 9:53pm On Mar 22, 2017 |
guente02: From your complaint, the transformer as a unit us already overloaded. It might be that the transformer was installed when you have few unit of houses. Your phase of the 3 phases might be the most overloaded, I.e there are more houses/customers on the phase than the other two. Since the transformer carries more load than required, making the fuse useless as the load it carries is more than it's rated capacity. So making use of copper wire which can sustain higher load for longer time. Above all, the transformer lifespan shortens as it is being overstretched. |
Re: Reasons You Might Not Be Having Light (electricity): To A Layman Understanding by guente02(m): 10:19pm On Mar 22, 2017 |
ayobase:I've lived in the area for some twenty years and yes there has been major developments in the area but they could at least installed a new unit to cater for overloading and whatnot. Shebi we dey pay bill steady. Thanks for your time. |
Re: Reasons You Might Not Be Having Light (electricity): To A Layman Understanding by ayobase(m): 4:12pm On Mar 23, 2017 |
guente02: Of course. Your community should write to the concerned Disco and follow up. |
