A fault occurs in the electricity network and automation cuts the power in the area. The most common reasons are trees falling on power lines or the electricity network getting damaged during excavation work. A fault in the medium-voltage network automatically shows on our outage map. Customers who have signed up for the Message service in Elenia Aina are notified of the outage by SMS or email.
