Does anyone know why we had an hour without electricity at about 9.35 pm last evening ?

We must have been lucky. Only lost power for a couple of minutes.

Ours was off for 8 hours. I understand it was an underground cable fault.
If it happens again you can text Power (followed by your postcode) to 80876 and they will keep you updated by text between 7am and 10pm. They replied to me immediately and then updated at 21.29 and again at 7am to tell me the power was back. Quite a useful service.

We had the 8 hour cut. We are now stuck with a noisy generator in Mill Road. Any idea who we should contact to ask when this will be removed ?

Another power cut in Mill Rd overnight must have been at least 4 hours. Still a humming generator in the road, there was us thinking it might have been removed!

You could try calling Southern Electricity and find out what is happening

0800 072 7282

Or, if you haven't alreday thought of it, you could try calling the number on the side of the Generator - 08452 230400 (Memsgen)

derekdainton...that 'phone number for memsgen, is I suspect, the company who owns and hires out the generator. I doubt very much that they have any information about the specifics of its current use.

Do realise that Bert. But if I had a noisy Generator nearby I'd try all options, wouldn't you?

Tried all these options, finally I did get through to UK Power Networks 0800 7838866 who might have been mentioned in a previous post. They hope the generator will be removed today - we shall see!
