K-Electric spokesperson on Tuesday said the power utility will respond to the National Electric Power Regulatory Authority’s (NEPRA) show cause notice after reviewing it.
In a statement, the spokesperson said, K-Electric is currently reviewing the show cause notice issued by the NEPRA about load shedding.
The spokesperson said KE will submit its response within the time frame specified by the authority.
It is to be noted that NEPRA had issued a show cause notice over prolonged power outages being imposed on bill-paying consumers.
The authority observed that instead of implementing load shedding at the transformer level, the power utility has been carrying it out at the feeder level, subjecting even compliant customers to hours-long outages.
