What to do in the event of a power cut
This information comes from Maria Ulyart at CCC:
I am sending this on behalf of Electricity North West to inform you of their new '105' telephone number to report power cuts or to get up to date information on power cuts in your area.
Key points to note about this service are:
· Dialling 105 will put customers through to their local electricity network operator – the company that manages the cables, power lines and substations that deliver electricity into homes and businesses in their area.
· 105 is just one of the ways that customers can contact their electricity network operator. They can also contact them by phone or via their website, and most network operators are on social media too*
· 105 is a free service for people in England, Scotland and Wales.
· Customers can call 105 no matter who they choose to buy electricity from.
· Customers can also call 105 if they spot damage to electricity power lines and substations that could put anyone in danger. If there’s a serious immediate risk, they should call the emergency services too.
Any queries in relation to this service, please contact Electricity North West.
*You can also contact Electricity North via Twitter at @ElectricityNW, or via Facebook at Electricity North West
