BEC has warned residents throughout New Providence that there will be plenty more power cuts until the inept company can restore two failed generators.
BEC was struggling at weekend to restore power to thousands of customers who were forced to endure the summer heat without electrical power after three company generators failed at the Blue Hill Road and Clifton Pier plants.
BEC also warned residents to expect more outages.
One of their larger units is out of service for overhauls. It is expected to be back in servcie next week.
Apparently, lightning hit one of the transformers causing the failure in power supply.
Residents in Wulff Road, Dannottage Estates, Village Road, Kemp Road, Prince Charles Drive, Elizabeth, Yamacraw Hill Road, Yamacraw Shores, St Andrews Beach Estates, Colony Village, Winton, Twynam Heights, Nassau East and the Eastern Road were all without power last week.
Other residents in Elizabeth Estates, South Beach, Integrity Road, Imperial Park, St Vincent Road and side streets, Pineyard Road, a portion of the Eastern Road, Palm Cay Street and a portion of Chesapeake Road, were also without power Thursday night.
Once againj, BEC says they do not expect any further outages throughout the summer. Yeah, right!
