‘Emergency line trouble’ disrupts power supply in parts of Makati CBD, other areas

MANILA, Philippines— Power outages hit several areas of Makati City, including its  Central Business District (CBD), on Thursday afternoon, according to the Manila Electric Co. (Meralco).

Meralco said the power supply interruptions were triggered by “emergency line trouble” in several parts of the city, including Barangays Pio del Pilar, Bel-Air and San Lorenzo.

 

“Your area in Makati City may have been affected by an emergency line trouble which occurred at 11:42 AM with an estimated restoration time of 3 hrs,” announced Meralco in a Twitter post.

Meralco estimates the complete restoration of power at 2:42 PM.

INQUIRER.net has contacted Meralco for a comment but has not received a reply as of posting time.
