More Information

MetService has issued a heavy rain and strong wind watch for the Wellington region. 

After the recent once-in-a-decade storm, we’re mindful that some areas of our network have been placed under stress, and severe weather so soon after may result in more minor faults than we’d usually expect.

If you notice any flickering lights, surges, or low power, please call your retailer so we can send our crews to investigate.

As usual, if your power goes out please call your electricity retailer so we can get you reconnected as soon as possible.

Please remember to:

Let your electricity retailer know if you experience a power cut and it's not shown on our outages page.

Phone our emergency line on 0800 248 148 if you spot anything you think might be an electrical hazard.

Treat all electrical equipment as live at all times.

Follow your emergency response plan if you're medically dependent, and contact your health practitioner if an outage puts you at risk of harm.

Call 111 if anyone's in danger or if there’s a fire or serious risk to property.
