Parts of Chennai will face scheduled maintenance outages today, September 15, between 9 am and 2 pm. Notices list Mudichur, Selaiyur, and Kundrathur, with specific streets flagged. Residents in these pockets should plan lifts, pumps, and Wi‑Fi around the window, and watch for early restoration updates.
Both notices specify a five‑hour block for maintenance, with supply restored earlier if work finishes sooner. The lists focus on streets under each local substation’s network. Timings can shift if crews finish ahead, so keep phones charged and appliances unplugged until power stabilises.
