Bengaluru residents must prepare for scheduled power outages today, July 23. Multiple neighbourhoods face disruptions due to essential maintenance work. This activity involves the Bangalore Electricity Supply Company (BESCOM). The Karnataka Power Transmission Corporation Limited (KPTCL) is also involved. These works ensure grid stability and prevent future breakdowns. Check your locality now to avoid any sudden office or home inconvenience.
Most outages are scheduled between 10:00 am and 5:00 pm today. However, some areas might see earlier or staggered restoration. Heavy rain or technical hurdles could delay local power returns occasionally. The maintenance focuses on fixing old feeders and upgrading local transformers. Residents should charge their laptops and mobile devices early. This prevents unexpected blackouts during peak evening hours later this week.
