UPDATE: TEMPORARY POWER SUPPLY INTERRUPTION – WEST END / DIAMANT PARK
Electricians are currently on-site conducting cable testing to pinpoint the exact location of the fault.
Once the fault has been located, only the affected section will be isolated from the network to allow the necessary repairs to be carried out safely.
Power supply will then be restored to the remaining streets and areas around West End.
We appreciate residents’ patience while our team works to restore supply as soon as possible.
Kind regards,
