Power Outages
Cyclone Dovi has made its presence felt across our region overnight.
Damage to the network has been caused by high winds and trees down over lines. Around 5,000 customers across the network are without power early this morning.
Our crews are out across the network this morning assessing the damage, and working to restore power when it is safe to do so. We are focussed on restoring power to the larger areas without power, and then will work our way through the damaged network. We expect this could take some time, with high winds expected to continue during the day.
Customers are advised to call us on 0800 104040 if they see anything that looks damaged or unsafe and updates on outages can be found at www.northpower.com....
We thank customers for their patience while our crews work as quickly as they can in the conditions to restore power, and customers affected are reminded to treat all lines and equipment as live at all times.
