The electricity authority (EAC) is set to continue its smart meter installations across the island starting next week, with expected electricity supply interruptions of up to 20 minutes in various areas.
Smart meter: Areas Affected in Nicosia
In Nicosia, the installations will focus on the city centre and the Aglandjia area. Specific locations include Larnaca Avenue, from the roundabout towards SOPAZ, up to Salaminos and Stasinou Avenues. Work will also occur between Larnaca Avenue and Archbishop Makarios III Avenue, particularly around the University of Cyprus.
Installation Plans in Limassol
Moving to Limassol, smart meters will be installed along a section of Spyros Kyprianou Avenue, between Vasileos Konstantinou A’ Street and Agias Fylaxeos Avenue, located south of the Tsireios Stadium.
Updates for Larnaca Residents
Larnaca will see installations on Griva Digeni and Grymari Afxentiou Avenue, as well as Louki Akrita, Chrysopolitissis, Dimitraki Dianellou Streets, Mitropoleos Square, Andreas Strouthides, and Christodoulos Iakovidis Street.
Paralimni’s Meter Installation Schedule
In Paralimni, the installation will take place in the town centre, particularly around the church of Agios Georgios, and along Protara, Salaminos, Antonis Papadopoulou, and Ilias Papakyriakou Streets.
Impact on Daily Life
Residents in the installation areas should prepare for brief power interruptions. The EAC has advised that the outages will be kept to a minimum, aiming for a maximum duration of 20 minutes to lessen the impact on daily activities.
