Good morning everyone,
As you will be well aware,we are currently experiencing widespread outages and partial power across Whanganui and surrounding areas due to the weather.
Please note this is likely a network issue, not a fault inside most homes. Linesmen are out working in tough conditions to restore power as quickly and safely as possible.
At this stage electricians generally cannot repair anything until the network supply is fully restored. However, once your street power is back on, if your property still has no power — give us a call and we will come and have a look..
If the linesmen advises you to contact an electrician, please call us as soon as possible on 022 358 6658
Stay safe, keep clear of any fallen lines, and thank you for your patience while everyone works to get power restored.
