24 March 2018, Sweetcrude, Lagos — Ikeja Electric has commissioned additional feeders within its Ikorodu network.
The additional feeders are for Bayeku feeder at Igbogbo injection substation and Ladega 11KV feeder at Sabo injection substation.
These feeders are expected to stabilize electricity supply and largely reduce load-shedding being experienced by residents of Macaulay, Fashola Estate, Ildao, Agufoye, Jaiyesinmi, Oriwu, Elepe, Iwajowa, Harmony, Borokini, Baiyeku and Agbeni areas of Ikorodu.
Bayeku and Ladega 11KV feeders were both previously overloaded and experiencing frequent tripping, as a result of excess load, especially during peak periods.
