The poles and wires (the infrastructure) that deliver energy to your home or business are owned and managed by your local energy electricity or gas distributors. Distributors work year round to ensure power outages are kept to a minimum, but sometimes factors such as bad weather or scheduled maintenance may disrupt your supply.
To ensure distributors can contact you about outages via SMS, make sure you have registered your mobile number with us. You can check or change your account details in MyAccount.
