With summer right around the corner, power cur in Bengaluru is all set to become a routine that all Bengalureans must adjust to. Either a maintenance work, load shedding or a planned schedule to balance the distribution of electricity across the state capital, power outage is soon to be summer’s best pal here.
The power distribution utility said such maintenance activities are usually planned ahead of time to minimise the risk of unexpected breakdowns and to improve the long-term reliability of the city’s electricity network.
Why the Power Cuts Are Needed
According to officials, the planned shutdowns are required to carry out infrastructure upgrades, replacement of ageing equipment, and routine safety inspections at substations and along power distribution lines. These works include cable repairs, transformer maintenance and system checks aimed at preventing larger faults.
Officials explained that while scheduled outages can be inconvenient, they are necessary to avoid unplanned power failures that could last longer and affect wider areas.
Areas Affected on February 10
On February 10, power supply is likely to be disrupted in parts of Yeshwanthpur, Malleshwaram, Rajajinagar, Mahalakshmi Layout and Peenya. The outage is expected to begin in the morning hours and may continue through the afternoon.
Authorities cautioned that exact restoration times could vary depending on how quickly the maintenance work progresses on the ground. Residents in these localities may experience complete shutdowns during the scheduled window.
Areas Affected on February 11
On February 11, electricity supply may be interrupted in areas including Koramangala, HSR Layout, BTM Layout, Jayanagar and stretches along Bannerghatta Road. In these areas, consumers could face either complete power cuts or intermittent supply for several hours.
Officials said the work planned for this day involves multiple locations, which is why residents across different neighbourhoods may notice disruptions at different times.
Advice for Residents and Businesses
The power utility has advised residents to charge essential electronic devices in advance and plan daily activities around the outage schedule. People working from home, as well as small businesses, have been urged to make use of backup power options where available.
Consumers are also encouraged to follow updates shared through official communication channels, as timings may be revised depending on weather conditions or technical challenges encountered during the work.
Utility Assurances and Next Steps
Officials said advance information about the power cuts has been shared to reduce inconvenience and ensure preparedness. Critical services such as hospitals and essential public infrastructure will be provided with alternate power arrangements to avoid disruption.
The power distribution company reiterated that scheduled maintenance is a necessary part of ensuring a safer, more reliable electricity supply for Bengaluru. Residents have been asked to cooperate during the brief outages, with officials assuring that power will be restored as quickly as possible once the work is completed.
