POWER CUT IN SWINDON? CHECK LIVE OUTAGES

Use SSEN’s Power Track map for live outages and restoration times. Call 105 free to report a power cut.

Before you report it, rule out a fault in your own home. Open the consumer unit and look for a switch that has dropped. If the switches are up and the houses on your road or the street lights are also out, Power Track should show the cut.

  • Keep fridge and freezer doors shut until the supply returns.
  • Unplug computers, televisions and chargers to protect them from a surge.
  • Use torches for light and keep candles away.
  • Check whether a neighbour who lives alone needs anything.

Once the supply is restored, turn the big users, such as kettles and heaters, back on one after another, and check that freezer food has stayed frozen. If your home relies on electric heating, move into one room and add layers.

GENERATOR SUPPORT FOR SWINDON BUSINESSES

Swindon’s M4 manufacturing, logistics and retail economy depends on steady supply. We provide emergency generators, standby power and coverage from our Oxford and Thames Valley team.

For a manufacturer, a cut can stop a production line mid-run; a distribution centre can miss dispatch slots; a retailer can lose tills and close its doors. Our emergency generator hire runs 24/7, our standby generators give sites backup in place, and our servicing and maintenance keeps installed generators ready to take the load. Around the business parks, offices can lose phones, servers and door access too. Tell us which equipment must keep running and we can help work out the size and position of a generator, ideally before the power goes.

For a power cut at home, call 105. Our generator services are for businesses.
