Update TAMSUI Unplanned Outage, 19h34

POWER OUTAGE – Tamsui Update, 15 July @ 19:34

The team has been trying to switch back on, but a few issues need to be resolved. The estimated time for complete switch on is 21h00.

Clients affected must please bear in mind that there is a possibility of brief power outages as the municipality restores the network to the correct configuration. Noting that certain areas have been picked up and given alternative power where possible today.

VERY IMPORTANT: PLEASE ONLY USE ESSENTIAL APPLIANCES WHEN POWER IS RESTORED – there is a high risk of trips due to overload conditions and your assistance in curbing this will be appreciated.
