Power outage hits NAIA Terminal 3

[chua_riwap]

So yung battery nung isang gen set na-drain yung power, whic is used to crank up the 9 working gen sets, tama ba?

Malas lang.....
Halatang walang nagro-routine maint sa mga gen sets ng T3.

Tahimik nanaman si Pnoy?

emergency generators are suppose to run every week and put on line once a month. i worked at the heart center many many years ago (late 80's) and this was the standard practice even then. to me this means they are not doing their weekly test run and monthly "on load" test of their generators, both to test the generators, the synchronizing system and the switch gears. and 5 hours! nah, somebody is lying there somewhere. i think they were either out of diesel or the people in-charge did not know what to do.

also, sabi ng meralco na-restor ang power from the substation after 1 minute. how hard is it to throw a transfer switch? improperly maintained or they do not know.

If I were Pnoy, this is where I draw the line -Abaya and Honrado should submit their resignation papers on Monday! You want to support the administration yet you have this embarrassing situation that slaps you in the face and leave you hurting ang frustrated. Meantime Abaya will just issue a general statement that he will look into the generator system when obviously it is more than that. What an incompetent and ineffective head that should be severed with a sharp ax!

bro IMO suntok sa buwan yan si abaya will submit his resignation to Pnoy? malaki ang pakinabang ni Pnoy sa kanya. kung walang silbi na sino man sa member ng cabinete ni Pnoy adios kaagad like what happened to Binay. heto ang palaging sinasabi ni Abaya sa media interview... "I serve at the pleasure of PNoy" onga naman ano ang paki ni Abaya sating mga taxpayer?

Power generation is a critical element of an airport operation!
Kung 9/10 na gen-sets ang pwede bakit inabot ng 5 hrs ang outage. Something is not right definitely sa kanyang power generation system and besides bakit wala bang black start gen-sets in case the standby units don't kicks in?

Parang mas worse pa ang T3 kesa T1 I can't imagine 5hrs na walang power yon nga may power napakainit na sa loob lahat ng passenger pawisan lalo na mga 3PM pag palubog na araw sakto sa depature

Yan din naisip ko. I better avoid all airlines in T3

i agree, we do this at BPO's to ensure generators will kick-in in an event of an power outage, foreign clients just won't accept the fact that most calls gets disconnected when the city power dies...

they ran out of diesel thats the most logical thing... the airport is full of vehicles with batteries they can collect to start-up the generators, but the main fault is not practicing proper genset maintenance, ensuring it will work when needed...

a lot of things can happen when the power is out, either you can bring in things (or out) in the darkness of the night

[dr. d]

clearly, the person in charge of maintaining the genset in tiptop shape, ready to generate at a flick of a switch, was not doing his job. this includes training of personnel to do the right thing in the event of an outage.
either that, or administration has not approved funding for fuel and fresh battery, and other maintenance nicknacks..
maintenance can not do its job if administration refuses to fund them.
let's sit back and watch the finger-pointing game...

what i don't believe is the lack of a backup power source. airport yan eh. the backup source should ensure that take-offs, landings and loading and unloading of passengers are not affected.

dapat dyan tinawag na lang si john mcclaine para makita ang reason.

smell something fishy...

Meralco: No scheduled power outage | Headlines, News, The Philippine Star | philstar.com

The five-hour power outage at the Ninoy Aquino International Airport Terminal 3 (NAIA-3) on Saturday night was not caused by a technical glitch at the airport substation of the Manila Electric Co., Meralco spokesman Joe Zaldarriaga said yesterday.

He explained that Meralco personnel inspected the site and found no problem with the substation circuits, leading them to conclude that the problem lies with the NAIA and its system.

“Our team’s inspection revealed that Meralco has nothing to do with the power outage at the NAIA Terminal 3 for five hours,” Zaldarriaga said.

The Meralco inspection team, he said, arrived at the NAIA substation at around 1 a.m. yesterday to conduct inspection and repairs on wirings that could have caused the power outage but found nothing wrong with the facility.

He also said that establishments near the terminal did not have the same problem, suggesting that the fault lies with the NAIA.

Talagang ayaw mawala ng Pilipinas sa headlines....

kapal lang talaga ng mukha ni Pnoy and Abaya pre.......maski ba ilang araw na lang sila dyan, PNoy should fire him pa din. looking for graceful exit ata eh.

[chua_riwap]

Sa cebupac, nasa 73 flights na raw ang affected, & a total of around 13k passengers.

Onli in the phl nga.
Pero petiks lang ang mga namamahala ah....parang wala lang. Hinihintay na lang nilang humupa yung ngitngit ng mga tao.

[macsd]

Si Honrado busy nagtatago. AmpotA!!! Buti pa si Abala, kahit mali ang mga palusot sumasagot. How can he be a product of West Point??? Baka Sangley Point lang cya galing nagkokolelta ng talaba. hahaha...

[chua_riwap]

Narinig ko lang sa radio.....

Pati raw yung control tower, nawalan daw ng kuryente? Langya, Honrado, pakamatay ka na!

Yes bro.,- there is an exponentially increasing intensity of disenchantment vs. those running the show here...

Maging hands-on naman kayo mga namumuno rito! Get your assess off your seats and stop scratching your b*lls, while counting your doughs...

Don't tell us the sh!tty excuse, that sh!t happens and this is just less than 1% of the times.. That it is just "inconvenience"... Sobra-sobra nang kahihiyan sa bansa natin ito... At sobra-sobra na ring pahirap sa mga tao natin ito!!!

It is virtually our only International Gateway... Major airlines are using the terminal... Our people and our guests are using this terminal....

It should be up 100%! That is why backups have to be "redundant" and real time!....

Ano ba naman kayo???? Management101 iyan!!!
