Why These Cuts Happen
Most of tomorrow’s shutdowns fall under two categories: monthly maintenance, and breaker or accessory servicing for 110kV and 22kV lines. TANGEDCO runs these on a rolling basis across substations throughout the year, so a scheduled cut in your area isn’t unusual, it’s part of routine grid upkeep rather than a sign of a fault or supply issue.
Before the Power Goes Off, Keep These Ready
| Prep | Why It Matters |
|---|---|
| Fill overhead tanks before 9:00 AM | Motors won’t run once supply cuts |
| Charge phones, laptops, power banks | Especially important for the 7–8 hour outages |
| Keep inverter load light | Reserve battery for fans and lights, not fridge or AC |
| Charge Wi-Fi router backup overnight | For anyone working from home in Sulur, Annur or Mettupalayam belt |
| Finish cooking before 9:00 AM | A closed fridge stays cool for 4 to 6 hours |
| Plan heavy machine work around the cut | Useful for small workshops or mills in Karur and Poolavady zones |
What If Power Doesn’t Return on Time
Power supply is usually restored close to the listed end time, and sometimes even earlier if the maintenance work finishes ahead of schedule. If your area’s power hasn’t come back a while after the scheduled end time, it likely isn’t connected to this maintenance work. In that case, contact your local TANGEDCO section office directly, or call the state electricity helpline at 1912 to report a possible line fault.
That covers the complete shutdown schedule for September 28, 2026. If your locality isn’t listed above, no outage is currently scheduled for your area tomorrow.
