Our weather forecasts are telling us that bad weather is on the way and keeping the lights on safely is our number one priority.
We invest millions every year to upgrade and strengthen our network; however, even with this investment and maintenance, there are times when the power does go off.
On other occasions, we may need to turn your power off for a short time to carry out essential maintenance; when this is the case, we will always give you as much notice as possible.
In this short video, we're sharing some simple tips to help you plan ahead in case your power ever goes off.
Further information on power cuts, our Priority Services Register and useful advice can be found here on our power cuts pages.
