Mechanics get Port Kaituma generators up and running
– Power supply returned to normalcy after months
After a series of power outages that affected residents of Port Kaituma, Region One earlier this month, things have become brighter. The damaged generators were repaired.
The two engines that were repaired, (centre) Chrisne David with two others who assisted with the repairs.
They had several defects including damaged fuel injectors which resulted in limited supplies of electricity to the community.
Port Kaituma had been faced with electricity problems since August last year after a generator was damaged and Port Kaituma Power and Light was forced to operate on one generator.
According to Chrisne David who has been a mechanic for 45 years, he worked along with others to repair both generators since the fuel injectors that were supposed to be purchased for over $2.7M were not delivered.
Adding that he serviced several parts of the engine, he said even the pressure pump was rebuilt while some other parts were replaced.
