Why does Kenya Power make system repairs?
As previously reported, during the planned electrical maintenance, technicians of KPLC It usually takes their time to change the big and bad transformers.
They repair the old electrical transmission lines and replace the electrical cables before they are successful and cause to break.
This often requires a service company to turn off electricity at small stations and designated areas to ensure the safety of employees and users during maintenance.
Maintenance also reduces the risk of electronic accidents such as fires, electrocutions, or equipment explosions that can endanger employees and public.
