When your power will be back on – the suburbs and the times…

Most of those hundreds of homes and businesses with no power can expect the service to be restored by the end of the week, but for some it will be Sunday and for a few in the Macdonald Valley it will be Tuesday March 15, so a lengthy wait for those folks.

Endeavour Energy cut the power to many flood-affected Hawkesbury areas for safety and also to protect equipment as flood waters rose.

This information here from Endeavour Energy for all those areas that had power cut for safety reasons when the flood waters came through. You can also click on this link to go direct to Endeavour’s list and timeline for power restoration.
