Officials have said that power supply will be restored before 5 PM if the maintenance is completed earlier than planned.

Why Power Shutdown?

TANGEDCO conducts periodic maintenance shutdowns to ensure the safety and reliability of the electricity distribution network. These works include inspection of transformers, replacement of damaged cables, upgradation of substations, and tree-trimming near high-voltage lines. Such preventive measures help reduce the risk of unplanned outages and improve power efficiency, especially ahead of the festive and winter seasons.

What Residents Should Do

Residents in affected areas are advised to charge essential electronic devices, keep emergency lights or power banks ready, and avoid operating heavy electrical appliances during restoration hours to prevent power surges. Those running small businesses or using medical equipment that depend on electricity should plan alternate arrangements in advance.

For real-time updates, consumers can contact TANGEDCO’s helpline or check the TNEB official website for area-specific information and restoration updates.
