    POWER SUPPLY HALTED BECAUSE OF LIGHTNING

    The residents of several districts of Yerevan have serious concerns
    about the possible resumption of periodical cessation of power supply,
    especially taking into account the fact that the Nuclear power station
    has ceased its work for 45 days. Power supply was halted in Ajapnyak,
    Nor Norq, Arabkir and Kentron.

    The situation lasted up to 10 hours.

    According to press secretary of "Armenian electricity supply network"
    Zara Torikyan, the reason was the weather: the strong wind and the
    rain damaged the overhead cables which were rather old. According
    to the press secretary, the cables are being repaired. By the way,
    in several districts were power supply wasn't halted, the residents
    themselves switched off the safety devices.

    Zara Torikyan informed "A1+" that the situation lasted
    only a few hours, and the results of the incident were soon
    eliminated. Nevertheless, the building in Buzand 1/3 was deprived of
    electricity for ten solid hours.
