EPR North teams restored power supply in the area of Mount Shipka under difficult weather conditions

At the end of last week, 17 customers of Elektrodistribuenie North from the area of Mount Shipka were left without power during the dark part of the day. From the dispatch center of the company, it was established that the accident was in the aerial part of the power line. The terrain is mountainous, difficult to get around at night, with accumulated snow and icy air wires. At the beginning of the next day, in climatic conditions outside the norm, the teams of ERP North went around the area, located the place of the failure and after carrying out the necessary activities on the network, the electricity supply to the customers was restored.

Keeping the electricity distribution network in working order in winter conditions is a difficult task and a serious challenge for all teams of electricians of ERP North. Accidents on power lines are eliminated regardless of weather conditions — heavy rains, heavy snowfall, gusts and storms, and always in the name of restoring the power supply to all customers of the company. 60 duty teams of the company are constantly ready to eliminate accidents occurring on the 43,000 km long power distribution network in North-Eastern Bulgaria, no matter what time — at night or on holidays and weekends. The main priority for each of them is precisely the guarantee of uninterrupted power supply for each customer connected to the ERP North network.
