DOMLEC Engineer Lemuel Lavinier tells customers isolate generators from their system to prevent fires

​Engineering, transmission and distribution manager at DOMLEC Lemuel Lavinier is advising customers who are operating their personal generators from their homes, to ensure that the DOMLEC system is completely isolated, so as not to compromise the electrical system and cause fires, or cause the return of their power to DOMLEC Lines. Lemuel was speaking on DOMLEC's ‘Power Talk’ program.

Lavinier is also clearing the air over misinformation in the public that electricity has been restored to Morne Daniel. DOMLEC confirms that electricity has been restored in several areas within the city of Roseau.

​Meantime Lavinier says the company is working feverishly within the community of Pottersville over the next 2 weeks. According to him, residents are now responsible to ensure that measures are in place to have their homes recertified.
