Two Planned Short Powercuts

Notification of future HV (High Voltage) works near Red House Lane, Leiston.

UK Power Networks is carrying out essential planned electrical works. They will be upgrading these assets to future proof the local electrical network, making it more reliable and better for the environment.

UK Power Networks will be working in an area to the south east of Leiston (outlined below) from Monday 28/10/2024 until Friday 01/11/2024.

This means UK Power Networks will have to turn off the electricity supply to some properties temporarily so that their engineers can carry out the work safely. They will do their best to ensure the interruption is as short as possible to allow this essential work to be done.

You will receive a UK Power Networks Advance Notification Card before the work begins advising you of all details, including when your electricity supply will be turned off and for how long. You should also receive a further reminder card in the week leading up to the planned works.

Where are the engineers working?
