Power Failure, Again!

August 4th, 2005 - Thursday

The electricity went off at 4:34pm and was restored at 5:30pm. This is the second power failure in five days, after last Sunday’s. I hope both incidents are a mere coincidence rather than an indicator of a developing trend. The elevators, however, were functioning this time around.

    Now what did you do again, Peter? :P
    Anyway, it was a regular occurence in my area sometime back as the generator kept on tripping because of overload. And this is always in the night (the time where everybody uses the aircond I guess).

    Hope your problem is not becoming a “norm”

    We have a power outage the other day. Not long, about 30 minutes. Turned out some fool tried to steal the cables at the sub-station, plunging part of the city into darkness.
