Lima and Callao Face Scheduled Power and Water Cuts Monday for Utility Maintenance

Providers say the sector-by-sector outages prevent larger failures by modernizing local networks.

Overview

  • Pluz and Hidrandina, which published updated timetables for Monday, May 18, will cut power by sectors in five districts across Lima and Callao.
  • Pluz lists San Juan de Lurigancho from 9:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m., Callao 9:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m., Independencia 10:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m., Jesús María 1:30 p.m. to 3:30 p.m., and Breña 3:00 p.m. to 5:00 p.m.
  • The power cuts will be staggered within each district and can last several hours per zone, with Pluz warning some sectors could reach nine hours depending on the work.
  • Sedapal plans water suspensions Monday, May 18 in parts of Lurigancho and Los Olivos for reservoir cleaning and pipe connections, and it will deploy tank trucks to the most affected points.
  • Residents are urged to store water, charge phones, unplug sensitive devices, and check official channels and hotlines for block-level schedules and assistance.
