"However, he ensures that the relay (which functions to control the flow of electricity) works well, so that when there is a disturbance, the flow of electricity is interrupted."

"The relay works to extinguish, that's the essence," said Jisman quoted from Merdeka.com, Thursday, June 6, 2024. In addition, Jisman also requested PLN to carry out mitigation so that such blackout incidents do not happen again. 'It must be investigated. It must be audited. It should not happen again, that is also an order from the Minister,' said Jisman."

The translation of "Kompensasi dari PLN" to English is "Compensation from PLN".

From the incident, PT PLN (Persero) promised compensation for customers in West Sumatra affected by the power outage. The compensation provided is a 10 percent reduction in electricity rates.

               

"Eric Rossi Priyo Nugroho said, this compensation applies to PLN customers affected by power outages lasting more than 8 hours."
