Wild weather coming - tie down the trampoline!
We’re preparing for stormy weather so help us keep you, and the power network safe.
Tie down the trampoline, stay away from downed power lines and don’t try to remove vegetation or objects caught in lines.
WEL has field crews on high alert in preparation for expected heavy rain and high winds which could cause damage to its network so if the wild weather causes power outages residents are asked to be patient.
We’ll be asking crews to work in challenging situations. If their safety is compromised in any way they will make the site safe and return at a later time to complete repairs. We apologise for the inconvenience this might cause for our residents but the safety of staff will be highest priority at all times.
• If you have any concerns regarding the electricity network call WEL Networks on 0800 800 935.
