He urged not to turn on all the equipment at the same time after the restoration of light, because there is a threat of voltage drops that can damage electrical appliances.

Earlier, Ukrenergo published a schedule of blackouts for November 30.

Mykolaiv and 70% of the region remained without electricity for more than 30 hours due to the consequences of massive rocket fire that occurred on the night of November 28.

The lights in the city went out around 5:40 a.m. on November 28. Despite an attempt to restore the supply, electricity appeared only briefly in the evening, after which it disappeared again. The head of RMA Vitalii Kim assured that the damage has already been detected, and the electricity supply will be restored by noon on November 29.

As of 12 o'clock, Vitalii Kim reported that the recovery of subscribers has begun. The light will be turned on according to the schedules.

Despite the power outage, a number of measures have been implemented in Mykolaiv to ensure stable life, Mykolaiv Mayor Oleksandr Sienkevych said.
