Why This Outage Is Happening

The scheduled power cut on 11 February is part of preventive maintenance and infrastructure work being carried out by BESCOM and KPTCL across Bengaluru's distribution network. These planned outages help technicians safely repair and upgrade electrical lines, transformers and substations; work that cannot be done while the power line is live. Such preventive steps aim to reduce unexpected breakdowns and improve overall power reliability.

Tips for Residents During the Outage

To make the most of the day despite the temporary power cut:

1. Charge phones, power banks and laptops before 10:00 AM
2. Complete tasks requiring electricity (ironing, cooking, washing machine, etc.) before or after the outage window
3. Keep backup lighting ready
4. If working from home, schedule offline work or shift routine tasks around the outage hours
5. Planning ahead helps minimise disruption to daily life and work.
