Tree uprooted by strong wind breaks poles from EPP North's grid

Two reinforced concrete pillars broken by the strong wind in the Shumen village of Chernookovo this week were replaced as a matter of urgency by teams of ERP North. The damage was caused by a large tree uprooted by the storm. The sharp change in weather conditions in the country has created prerequisites for emergency situations on the air power distribution network. The timely work of the employees of the electricity distribution company in North-East Bulgaria to eliminate the damage and secure the affected areas did not allow the customers to remain without power supply for a long time.

Maintaining the electricity distribution network in good working order in adverse weather conditions is part of the daily activities of all teams of electricians of ERP North. Accidents on power lines are eliminated regardless of weather conditions — heavy rains, heavy snowfall, hurricane winds, 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 debt kilometers of electricity distribution network in North-Eastern Bulgaria, regardless of 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.
