samuijimmy Posted June 9, 2017 Share Posted June 9, 2017 I've just been informed that Electric in my area of Bang Por will be off from 8.30 am until 4 pm... on June 12th (Monday) I am not sure how wide an area it will cover... Fairly rare event for electric to go off around here! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SamuiRes Posted June 12, 2017 Share Posted June 12, 2017 Bangrak Planned Power Outage Thursday 15th June We are told the power will be out 0900 - 1200. We have received written notice of this - so it must be true!!!! We are between the Ghost Road and Replay 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Schnitzel von Crumb Posted June 12, 2017 Share Posted June 12, 2017 Is there any way to find out when there are planned electric outages? Live in Bang Por and power out today with planned outage. Sent from my iPhone using Thaivisa Connect Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
evadgib Posted June 12, 2017 Share Posted June 12, 2017 Parts of Maenam will be off 0830-1600hrs tomorrow enabling PEA to cut back the foliage according to a 'get the seat earlier' wagon this morning. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sent from my iPhone using Thaivisa Connect Fortunately one of my Thai neighbours came and told me after the truck had gone by the other day, announcing the outrage today .. I have a sneaking suspicion it maybe out tomorrow as well (?)... makes for a long day with no water or fan! Perhaps get to know a few of your Thai neighbours, I find they are quiet helpful often times ... Very often the announcements are only in Thai with someone driving around in a pickup. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would agree with the above. Outside of maintenance days, my electricity is very good. I can't quite give it 100% reliability, but I can say 98% or 99% (Mae Nam). Perhaps a new neighbourhood?

TheLobster Posted June 26, 2017 Share Posted June 26, 2017 Plus planned downtime, power off 8:30 - 4:30 today. I sincerely hope this was to fix the issues we are having but I'm not holding my breath. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know people that have had serious problems in that area previously and yet I've never ever seen a single post reflecting those problems from you. Do you by any chance have a business interest in the area? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phetphet Posted July 1, 2017 Share Posted July 1, 2017 (edited) Heard a loud bang and power went off again ten mins ago here in Bangrak. Fan running slowly, so maybe lost a phase. Went off last night also with the rain. Edited July 1, 2017 by phetphet 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
