GINGOOG City plunged into darkness on Wednesday night due to a short circuit affecting a substation of the Misamis Oriental II Rural Electric Service Cooperative (Moresco II).
There was an explosion when three 13.2-kv distribution lines accidentally had contact.
It was due to heavy rains, said Ronnel Cañada, general manager of Moresco II.
The city lost its power supply at around 8:30 pm Wednesday, and Moresco II restored the supply at 3 am Thursday.
“Naputol ang ground wire nga milabyog paingon sa lain nga mga linya hinungdan dunay short circuit, hinungdan sa kusog nga explosion,” he said.
Cañada said a circuit breaker tripped off as a result.
