Power supply has been restored to more than 104,000 homes and businesses.  Western Power thanks the community for their patience as our teams worked as quickly and safely as possible to make safe, repair and re-energise.

 About 11,000 customers across the network, most in the Mid-west region, remain affected by significant incidents including bushfires.

                 Customers who experienced an outage for longer than 12 consecutive hours are encouraged to apply for an extended outage payment, which is an inconvenience payment rather than compensation. 

 If you see a fallen power line or any other damage, please stay eight metres away and Make The Safe Call to Western Power on the emergency 24/7 number 13 13 51 so that emergency response crews can attend the hazard to make the area safe.
