SA Power Networks are taking steps to minimise power outages – inspecting poles and wires, trimming trees in high-risk areas, and addressing potential issues all year round.

Even so, severe weather can still cause the power to go out.

For more information visit the Don’t Wait for Summer – SA Power Networks web page, which outlines the steps SA Power Networks is taking to minimise power outages and provides useful resources and practical advice for households and businesses to prepare for power outages.

This includes Power Outage Plan templates (with one tailored specifically to people relying on medical equipment, developed with the Energy Charter and AMA), CFS preparation advice, and generator safety information.
