Such planned shutdowns are generally carried out to facilitate electrical maintenance, inspection, repair or other necessary work on the power distribution network.
The affected areas may experience a complete or partial interruption during the specified shutdown period.
What Should Consumers Do During the Scheduled Power Cut?
Residents and commercial establishments in the affected areas can take a few precautions before the scheduled shutdown begins:
- Charge mobile phones, power banks and other essential devices in advance.
- Complete essential electrical work before the shutdown period.
- Keep backup arrangements ready for important equipment.
