power cuts last night in Horn Lane area

We had 3 momentary power cuts between 10pm and 11pm last night (Tue 2nd Aug)- everything went off and then immediately on again. Did anyone else experience this?

Similar cuts have been reported on the Chiswick Forum.

Yup, same here - and another around 5am possibly (although I may have dreamt it :)My alarm system was not happy.

Same thing happened to us down on Bollo Lane, I think there were three in total, local shop alarms went haywire and all our clocks/phones had trouble keeping up!I'm never sure whom to contact in such an instance; when there's a water leak, I call Thames Water, but there isn't a general number for electricity, is there?

For this part of West London, including W3, W4, W5, W7, W13, the local electricity distribution network is managed by Southern Electric.  Their number for reporting a power cut is 08000 72 72 82.W12 and W6 are covered by London Electricity on 0800 028 0247.

That's very helpful thank you; I thought it might be Southern Electric, but now I know who to ring in future!

No water in middle of the night here. On again this morning.
