This is something every Nigerian is aware of.

Why do they take the light whenever rain wants to fall?

Because they are always afraid that the god of thunder will exercise his wrath upon them for keeping Nigerians in darkness perpetually.

Some people say phcn use sunlight to dry wire thats why theres power outage after heavy rainfall...

Lalasticlala come and shed more light on this thread!

Becos they don't trust their polls and breeze every where during rain and if poll fall inside water is a big problem

It’s because of some weak poles.. when there’s heavy rain some of these poles might fall and cause disasters. But after a period of time and no one complain about fallen pole, SNAP... they turn it back on... that’s when we shout UP NEPA

The light outage during the rain fall is activated by a device called Auto-reclosure, it has the capability to Sense a very high voltage from the lighting during the rain fall, once the voltage is too high for a device called the lighting Arrester to handle, it activate an open circuit for light to go off and closes back automatically when the coast is clear.

its risky if light no go o. if thunder touches the utility wire, naso e go carry am enter your gadgets o.
so it's safer to seize power once there is rain.

Thunder is the main reason light goes off during rain. Observe how when it rains without thunder, power does not go off.
