Be Prepared

Denise Lee MP

Hi everyone, I've heard official word that we may need to prepare for potential power disruptions this Easter Weekend.

Vector has been keeping a close eye on the weather and there's enough concern for them to continue with preparations, including additional measures to keep crews and customers covid safe.

What this means is that it's possible it could take longer to get power back on if there are outages due to the forecast bad weather.

Vector's asking all Aucklanders to:

✔️ Prepare as you normally would when a storm approaches – tie down trampolines, bring in sun umbrellas, make your area as safe as possible to minimise the chance of emergency call outs - have torches and check batteries, and if on tank water, make sure drinking water is stored.

✔️ Take particular note of items that may fly around the neighbourhood during gale force winds – we don’t want people to break their bubbles to retrieve property.

✔️ Not approach Vector teams for their own safety. Please remember physical distancing of 2m.

✔️ Use Vector's Outage Centre (below link) to monitor restoration progress if power is out:
