Important Public Safety Message: ESB Networks is reinforcing its vital warning around public safety on day six of the restoration of supply following Storm Éowyn.
We still have many faults on the electricity network and have been made aware of several instances of potentially very dangerous incidents where members of the public have
unknowingly approached fallen electricity infrastructure, particularly in the
worst impacted areas of the country.
Following a significant weather event like Storm Éowyn, fallen debris can prevent people from seeing hidden risks such as wires entangled into trees and branches.
If you come across fallen wires or damaged electricity network, never, ever touch or approach these as they are LIVE and extremely dangerous. Please report any damage to electricity infrastructure by calling 1800 372 999.
