Default EdeNorte customers - want to know when your luz goes off??

One of the things that has bugged me for years is that I never knew when street power was going off and coming back on. Pain in the arse when using heavy load equipment and street power goes!!!

Well you want to know when EdeNorte will turn off your power????

Check out EdeNorte's website and you will find they have very kindly provided a weekly schedule of planned shutdowns.

Go to www.edenorte.com.do
click on "atencion al cliente" on the tool bar at the top of 1st page
click on "interrupciones de energia" on the left side scroll down menu
this brings up all regions served
click on your region and there you will find the power schedule for the next 7 days for your specific area.

tested it for the last week and seems pretty accurate.
Obviously this is SCHEDULED shutdowns and doesn't allow for the extra ordinary outages that happen.

An informed population will make wise choices. I think?
Interesting info.

So, I will check if this is working, or if it is just a plan...
Tomorrow I am supposed to have no light from 7 a.m. - 10 a.m.

I can´t see for Friday, as the schedule is not online. But we had light until 5 p.m. then gone for an hour, and then again gone from 8,40 p.m. and for 3 hours...

Thanks for the link! Last time I checked their website it was under construction and then I completely forgot about it.

Torre Alta is not a separate section, it depends on where the location in the area is, what section it would be for the few Edenorte users that is there.
Most use the Playa Dorada planta and their services.

Costambar, just a guess, would it be the Tropigas area? Puerto Plata 103 - D??

Lucky you! You are simply not on the list because you have no interruptions!
That is great. Here downtown POP, it is 3 hrs a day now, so not so bad now when I see what other areas have to deal with..

It is true that since yesterday or the day before yesterday the situation is much better concerning the electricity in Costambar. But the passed weeks have been terrible. Sometimes the power went off from 9:00 AM to 4:00 PM. Let's see in the future what will be the situation.... It is strange that neither Costambar nor Cofresi are on the list.
