How Residents Can Prepare For Power Shutdown
Authorities have advised residents to charge essential devices like mobile phones, inverters, and medical equipment in advance. Businesses and households depending on electricity for daily operations should plan alternate arrangements. Perishable food should be stored properly to prevent spoilage, and residents are urged to use the outage window for energy conservation and safe handling of electrical appliances.
When the power goes out, avoid switching on heavy appliances right before or after the shutdown since sudden fluctuations can damage them. It is safer to unplug televisions, computers, and other sensitive electronics until the supply stabilizes. Try to rely on natural ventilation and keep refrigerators closed as much as possible. If you work or study online, plan your schedule around the outage or use power banks and mobile data.
The maintenance and tree-cutting works are part of Tangedco’s efforts to strengthen the city’s power infrastructure and reduce the risk of unexpected outages in the future.
