Frequently Asked Questions — Power Cut in Koppal, Koppal

What is a power cut and why does it happen in Koppal?

A power cut (also called a power outage or load shedding) is a temporary interruption of electricity supply to your home or street. In Koppal, power cuts occur due to the following reasons:

  1. 1.Transformer Failure: Each locality in Koppal is served by an 11kV Distribution Transformer (DTR). If this DTR trips or burns, all homes within a 200–300 metre radius lose power — while neighbouring streets remain unaffected.
  2. 2.Scheduled Maintenance: GESCOM performs periodic preventive maintenance on feeders and substations serving Koppal. These are usually announced 24–48 hours in advance and last 4–8 hours.
  3. 3.Overloading: During peak summer or festival seasons, extremely high electricity demand can trip the feeder serving Koppal, triggering an automatic protective shutdown.
  4. 4.Weather Events: Heavy rain, lightning, or fallen trees can damage overhead lines supplying Koppal, Koppal, causing sudden outages.
  5. 5.Feeder / Grid Fault: A fault on the 33kV or 11kV feeder backbone serving Koppal can cause simultaneous power loss across multiple localities at once.

What should I do (and not do) during a power cut in Koppal?

Do This

  1. 1.Switch off ACs, geysers, and computers immediately — sudden voltage surges when power returns can damage appliances in Koppal.
  2. 2.Report the outage on PowerCut.today or call 18004258585 to ensure a lineman is dispatched quickly.
  3. 3.Charge your phone at the first sign of voltage flickering — it often signals an imminent cut.
  4. 4.If you have an inverter or UPS, verify it is fully charged and automatically switched on.
  5. 5.Check with neighbours on your street — if only your home is affected, it may be your own MCB or fuse, not a grid fault.
  6. 6.Keep one light switched on so you immediately notice when power is restored.

Never Do This

  1. 1.Never touch fallen power lines or electrical poles near your street in Koppal — call 18004258585 or 1912 immediately.
  2. 2.Do not run generators or inverters in closed rooms — carbon monoxide is colourless, odourless, and deadly.
  3. 3.Do not flip your main MCB (circuit breaker) repeatedly if power doesn't restore — it can damage your home wiring.
  4. 4.Avoid opening the fridge unnecessarily — a sealed refrigerator stays cold for 4 hours; a freezer for up to 48 hours.
  5. 5.Never attempt to repair outdoor electrical equipment, streetlights, or distribution boxes yourself.
  6. 6.Do not use candles near curtains, papers, or flammable materials — use LED battery torches instead.
