The Lahore Electricity Supply Company (LESCO) stated that there is no load-shedding except for areas with high-loss feeders. This claim is significant for residents who rely on a consistent power supply, more specifically in this heatwave.
In the past 12 hours, the power supply was suspended due to technical issues in 36 feeders, and its repair took about 25 minutes to 1 hour.
These High-loss feeders are categorized into different levels and variations of load-shedding.
Category III : 3hours of load-shedding experienced by 131 feeders
Category IV : 4hours of load-shedding experienced by 57 feeders
Category V : 5hours of load-shedding experienced by 37 feeders
Now, the power supply has been suspended on only 4 feeders.
Additionally, in response to the Heatwave, LESCO increased the ground staff for management and responsiveness of power supply in an effective manner
