Mumbai: Parts of Mumbai are facing low water pressure on Monday after a technical fault at the 3A Pumping Station in Panjrapur disrupted the city’s main water supply network. Officials from the Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation (BMC) confirmed that the breakdown was caused by a failure in the 230-volt AC contactor of the diesel generator (DG) set, which led to the tripping of multiple pumps.
According to BMC, the damaged contactor needs urgent replacement. For this repair, engineers will carry out a complete electrical isolation lasting about one hour. The BMC said the work is being undertaken on a “war footing” to ensure that the supply is restored as soon as possible.
