Power supply will remain suspended from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. on 23 October in several areas of Tiruchi due to maintenance work at the Edamalaipattipudur Sub-Station. The Tamil Nadu Power Distribution Corporation Ltd. is carrying out the work.
Areas affected include the Tamil Nadu Special Police camp, Crawford Colony, Anbu Nagar, Arunachala Nagar, Gandhi Nagar, Bharathi Min Nagar, SIMCO Colony, Arasu Colony, State Bank Colony, Kollankulam, Edamalaipattipudur, Ramachandra Nagar, RMS Colony, KRS Nagar, Rajiv Gandhi Nagar, Krishnapuram, Chettiyapatti and Anbilar Nagar.
The maintenance shutdown affects 18 areas across Tiruchi for five hours. Residents in these neighbourhoods should plan for a midday power cut. The Tamil Nadu Power Distribution Corporation Ltd. has not indicated any alternative schedule or compensation. The work is confined to a single sub-station, suggesting a localised grid upgrade rather than a system-wide outage.
