Then, the @sillysampi account said that the blackout in the South Jakarta area was caused by a burning substation.
According to @ pln_123, parts of South Jakarta (Mampang, Pejaten, Bangka) have had power cuts because a substation has caught fire. It's starting to fix. I know because I reported interference over the phone. The clerk's description was very clear and helpful.

Previously, DKI Jakarta and its surroundings also experienced a power cut on Sunday, November 1. At that time, the electricity went out due to a disruption to the 500 KV Extra High Voltage Air Line (SUTET) in Muara Tawar at 12.58 WIB. This then caused disruption in the supply of electricity to the capital.
