.jpg)
SP Energy Networks has issued advice to help customers stay safe in the event of any potential power cuts caused by forecast heavy rain and strong winds from Storm Kathleen over the coming days.
The Met Office has issued Yellow Weather Warnings for parts of the UK this weekend, with conditions expected to cause traffic delays and cancellations to transport services, with the potential for power supplies and mobile phone coverage to be affected. SP Energy Networks works 24/7 to protect network resilience during extreme weather to help reduce the chance of power loss and always responds to any issues as quickly as possible. Even with these preparations, there may be some damage to power lines and fallen trees or flooding which can cause access issues for engineers. Guy Jefferson, Chief Operating Officer at SP Energy Networks, said:- "Due to the potential for damage to our power lines, power cuts become more likely in high winds. It's important both we and our customers are fully prepared; just in case. We'll have engineers in the areas where we expect Storm Kathleen to have the most impact and our teams are on hand 24/7. The sooner we know about a power cut, the quicker we can get to work to restore supplies, so if you experience a power outage, let us know by calling the free, national emergency helpline on 105." SP Energy Networks' top tips for being prepared are:-
