Why Is IESCO Shutting Down Electricity?
IESCO said the temporary outages are required for its annual maintenance programme and construction and development work across the distribution network. The company publishes separate monthly maintenance schedules for its Islamabad, Rawalpindi, Attock, Jhelum and Chakwal circles. The announced interruptions are therefore planned maintenance shutdowns rather than unscheduled power outages, and IESCO apologised to consumers for the inconvenience.
- Annual maintenance: the shutdowns are part of IESCO’s yearly system maintenance programme.
- Development work: construction and development work is also being carried out across the distribution network.
- Planned, not a fault: these are scheduled interruptions announced in advance, not sudden breakdowns.
- Monthly schedules: IESCO publishes separate monthly maintenance schedules for each of its circles.
