Hello Folks,

Could someone please explain to me the rationale behind NEPA always interrupting power supply when they notice it wants to rain?


Because this has been going on for decades (from my childhood until adulthood) now and it seems this habit of theirs isn't stopping anytime soon.... And the noise from genetors makes my heart beat faster than Usain Bolt cry

They are taking precaution against possible mishaps like fallen electric poles caused by extreme or violent winds etc.

I've noticed if the rain is coming with a storm, they interrupt, if not, they don't.
For most places, storm or not, they'll surely interrupt it

Nigerian electricity is allergic to rain... Doesn't it rain in Aso Rock? Do they do the same thing over there?

When I lived in Abuja it hardly happened. Most power lines that way are built underground so chances of damage happening to them is very low.
