Even though power cuts are rare they can, and do, happen for a variety of reasons. For example severe weather conditions or another contractor damaging our underground cables could cause a loss of power.
I’m really proud to let you know about a new telephone number that you can call 24 hours a day if you ever have a power cut. Here at UK Power Networks we’ve been working with other electricity companies across the UK to make sure anyone across England, Scotland or Wales can call it to get through to the right company during a power cut.
Over the last few months we’ve been busy contacting trade associations and accreditation bodies to help raise awareness of the risks when working near electricity. We especially want people to look out for electricity cables that are buried underground and in the walls of buildings.
To celebrate National Apprenticeship Week, Emma Barbour, Talent Acquisition Partner at UK Power Networks offers her top 10 tips for securing an apprenticeship.
It’s my job to make sure UK Power Networks is prepared as well as it can be, for all sorts of natural - and manmade - problems which can hit our company, customers or equipment.
