Lightning strikes - Power outages
Due to lightning strikes we have a number of power outages across the Western and Northern parts of the Waikato and in Hamilton city.
Our crews are heading out to the various sites to assess the damage and where possible, make repairs. We have brought in additional resources to help us out but your patience is appreciated.
SAFETY COMES FIRST. If the work is unsafe, staff will make the site safe and return to repair the damage at an alternate time.
Please stay away from downed lines and do not try to remove trees or debris from lines.
Power out and not on our website? Call 0800 800 935.

From rugged campsite to 7.5ha resort
Grant Kilby has always loved camping. His mum was director of health at the YMCA, and he would attend YMCA camps in the school holidays. “I think it was mandatory that I was there,” he jokes.
He went on camping holidays with his parents, and later, took his own kids.
“Camping’s been in my blood.”
Poll: When do you shop the sales?
Bargain hunters made the most of Boxing Day sales at Centre Place and The Base in Hamilton on Friday.
However, a marketing expert believes Boxing Day sales, long a staple of Kiwi life post-Christmas, is on the outer as Black Friday becomes more popular.
When do you shop the sales? Tell us more in the comments (adding NFP if you don't want your words used in print).
