As of 4 p.m. on September 16, more than 3,200 customers in Hai Duong were still without power due to flooded houses or flooded transformer stations.
Hai Duong Electricity One Member Co., Ltd. said that by 4:00 p.m. on September 16, the unit had completed the repair of distribution transformer stations, the company's assets, affected by storm No. 3. All 110kV power lines and transformer stations, 141/147 medium-voltage lines were basically restored after storm No. 3.
However, there are still more than 3,200 customers who have not had their power restored, the most being Kinh Mon town with 1,033 customers, Chi Linh city with 993 customers, Hai Duong city with 857 customers...
Although the distribution transformer stations have been repaired, these households are located in flooded areas or the transformer stations themselves are still flooded, so it is not safe to turn on the power again.
Although the power grid system in the province has been basically restored, the power grid may sag, sag, or even break again during the temporary repair period, posing many potential risks, endangering people, pets, and damaging electrical equipment. Hai Duong Electricity recommends that customers pay special attention to safety, prevent electrical accidents while the power grid is still weak, and avoid going near sag, sag, or broken lines... When detecting the above phenomena, it is necessary to immediately notify the local electricity authority for support.
According to preliminary statistics in the province, storm No. 3 caused 3,086 medium and low voltage power poles to tilt and collapse; many transformers and other equipment were damaged.
