Hydro One will be completing planned transmission work related to the Highway 413 project on Saturday September 26 from 9 pm to 9 am. During this period, two major transmission lines that normally supply approximately two-thirds of Georgetown and its surrounding area’s electricity will be temporarily removed from service.
Our goal is to maintain electricity service throughout the planned work. However, if community electricity demand exceeds the reduced supply capacity available during the planned transmission work window, some customers may experience a temporary power interruption to protect the stability and reliability of the electrical system.
Customers are encouraged to prepare in advance by reducing their electricity use during this time. Some examples include, charging essential devices, planning electrical usage, and ensuring backup power arrangements are in place if required.
Learn how customers can help reduce the risk of service interruptions by limiting electricity use during the planned transmission work period.
