Reporting a power outage in Elterlein: How do I find the right contact point to report my fault?
If you are affected by a power outage, keep calm and check if the fuse in the fuse box has blown due to overload, for example. Do not immediately report a power outage to the police or fire brigade rescue co-ordination centers, as most of the time it is not an emergency. So the correct address is your energy supplier.
Are you also affected by power outages?
Major blackouts can occur at any time and result in extended power losses. Therefore, it is important to prepare for such a situation and know how to act. First of all, you should stay calm and find out why the power is off. It is advisable to have an emergency supply of food, water and medicine in order to be self-sufficient for several days. Emergency lighting and a battery-powered radio can also be useful. It is important to charge electronic devices such as computers and cell phones before they fail completely. If possible, one should consider alternative energy sources such as solar energy or wind energy. In the event of a power outage, one must follow the local authorities’ code of conduct and follow the instructions. Just call the numbers for the police and firefighters in an absolute emergency. On the other hand, it is advisable to inform neighbors and friends and support each other. With some precautions and simple etiquette, one can prepare for blackouts and minimize the impact.
In comparison: regional differences in power grid disturbances
Outages in the power grid happen from time to time, even if they are mostly regional and only temporary. In Germany, a lot is being done to ensure there are no power outages, and statistically speaking, German households have to go without electricity for an average of less than 20 minutes a year. In the UK it takes more than 1 hour a year, and in some European countries like Poland or Italy it takes more than 3 hours.
A comparison of federal states by the Federal Grid Agency shows that the main figures for outages range from 9 to 19 minutes. Rhineland-Palatinate (about 19 minutes a year) and Brandenburg (about 17 minutes) top the list, followed by Saxony-Anhalt (16 minutes). On the other hand, Mecklenburg-Vorpommern, Hesse, Bavaria, Berlin and Schleswig-Holstein have the least blackouts (about 9 minutes each).
