Once in a while, every household experiences a power cut. When it does happen, we know how frustrating it can be.
Some power cuts are planned, meaning you’ll receive a letter beforehand telling you exactly when this is going to happen and for how long. However, when the power cut is unexpected and sudden, it’s usually caused by a fault.
This video describes how we keep you updated in an unplanned power cut.
