Authorities have stressed that these measures are part of routine upkeep aimed at improving the reliability and efficiency of Bengaluru’s power infrastructure. KPTCL urges residents to exercise caution during the blackout hours and avoid operating essential electrical equipment unless necessary.

During a power outage, residents should ensure that mobile phones and power banks are fully charged beforehand so they remain connected. Using battery-operated lights, lanterns, or candles can help provide illumination safely. It is advisable to avoid operating high-wattage appliances, as sudden power restoration can cause surges that may damage equipment. Planning essential tasks around the scheduled outage can help reduce disruption to daily activities. The electricity corporation has assured that power will be restored promptly once maintenance work is completed, and residents are requested to cooperate and be patient during these necessary operations.
