Electrical distribution companies in Guatemala announced this Saturday maintenance work that they will carry out in the coming days in different departments and in the capital city, which could affect the energy service.
Some maintenance work is scheduled for next Sunday, May 5, while others will be done on Tuesday the 7th and Wednesday the 8th of the same month.
The National Institute of Electrification (INDE) reported on its social networks that on May 5, from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m., maintenance work will be done in Chimaltenango.
The municipalities that will be affected are the departmental capital of Chimaltenango, Parramos, Patzicía, El Tejar, San Juan Comalapa, Santa Cruz Balanyá, Zaragoza, San Andrés Itzapa and San Martín Jilotepeque.
It should be noted that on May 1, the department of Chimaltenango had suffered irregularities in the electrical energy service, and that the INDE attributed them to a failure in a transformer at the Chimaltenango substation, in addition to the heavy rains recorded in the sector.
