Coimbatore Power Cut Alert: These Areas To Face Day-Long Outage On July 8 For Maintenance Work
Power cut will occur in parts of Coimbatore on July 9 from 9 AM to 4 PM due to maintenance at the Kavundampalayam substation. Check affected areas and plan ahead to avoid disruption.
If you live in parts of Coimbatore’s Kavundampalayam region, brace for a full-day power cut on Tuesday, July 8, as the Tamil Nadu Generation and Distribution Corporation (Tangedco) carries out essential monthly maintenance. According to officials, power supply will be suspended from 9 AM to 4 PM in areas served by the Kavundampalayam substation. The scheduled outage is part of routine infrastructure upkeep aimed at ensuring uninterrupted and safer power distribution in the coming weeks.
As per The Times of India, the affected localities include Housing Board, AR Nagar, Thamami Nagar, Driver Colony, Samundeswari Nagar, Suguna Nagar, Union Road, Ashok Nagar, Murugan Nagar, and Bharathi Nagar.
Residents in these neighbourhoods are advised to plan their day accordingly — charge electronic devices in advance, keep emergency lights or power backups ready, and schedule any critical work or appointments outside the blackout window.
For small businesses, shops, and households that depend heavily on electricity, such planned shutdowns can be inconvenient.
