Millicent power network upgraded

Millicent is set to endure further power blackouts in the coming days.

SA Power Networks has advised hundreds of its Millicent customers of the upcoming scheduled maintenance upgrade via direct mail and its website.

For some homes and businesses in Millicent it will be the third outage in the space of two months.

A scheduled maintenance upgrade took place in Millicent and environs on August 14 and 15 and so the power supply was deliberately cut by SA Power Networks.

Around 500 properties were affected each day with outages lasting between 90 minutes and seven hours.

There were seven properties which had power outages on both days.

There was also an unexplained power outage lasting around two hours mid-morning on August 8 which affected 7000 farms, houses and businesses between Tantanoola and Mount Benson.
