Will power be restored at the time shown on the notification I receive?
We aim to keep to the estimated time on the notification you receive and the vast majority of planned interruptions are completed on schedule. However, occasionally the work can overrun due to technical or safety reasons. The safety of our staff and customers has to get priority.
