Weekend faults hit Tema, Accra West
The scheduled maintenance comes as ECG continues to manage the aftermath of multiple network faults recorded over the weekend.
On Sunday, May 24, 2026, a fault in the ECG network in the Tema Region disrupted power supply to Dawhenya, Abbeykope, and surrounding communities. Engineers were deployed to restore supply.
In the Accra West Region, a separate technical challenge on Sunday affected Mamprobi, Camara, Agbogbloshie, Timber Market, and surrounding areas.
In public notices, ECG extended apologies to affected customers, acknowledging the inconvenience caused by both the scheduled maintenance and the unplanned outages. The company assured the public that engineers are working to resolve all network issues, adding that the planned exercises are necessary to improve the long-term stability of the power distribution system.
