NORWICH POWER CUT TODAY?
UK Power Networks owns the cables and equipment around Norwich. Start with the UK Power Networks outage map. No sign of your street? Report it on 105. Stay back from fallen lines and assume they are live.
- Note any flickering or loud bangs before the cut.
- Keep a battery torch handy.
- If neighbours have power and you do not, check your consumer unit for a tripped switch.
- Unplug computers and TVs so they are safe when supply returns.
Food retailers and restaurants should log fridge and freezer temperatures during a cut, which helps with later stock decisions.
At home, the freezer stays coldest if the door stays closed. Candles are a fire risk in a dark house, so stick to torches. Switch off the oven and any heaters so nothing restarts while you are out, and check that an older neighbour has a torch and is warm.
BUSINESS COVER FOR NORWICH
The Norfolk and Norwich University Hospital, the University of East Anglia and Norwich Airport depend on constant power, and so do shops and offices in the city. In a city-centre shop or restaurant, a cut means no card payments, no cooking and chilled stock warming by the hour. On an office floor, it means no phones, no servers and no lifts. We provide 24/7 emergency generator hire, plus standby generators and maintenance for businesses that want backup in place before the next outage. When you call, a quick list of essential loads and somewhere on site a generator can stand helps us send the right set first time. Visit our Norwich generator hire and maintenance pages, or read about keeping your business running.
