Two regions of the Federal District, Gama and Lago Norte, will be without electricity for six hours this Thursday (28/5), from 10am to 4pm, due to maintenance work and tree pruning. In Lago Norte, the affected areas include the Rural Nucleus Córrego da Palha, Farms 50, 51, 155, 165 and 166, and the Lago Norte Mansions Sector, covering Farms 01, 02, 03, 04, 05, 06, 12, 13 and 14, as well as several streets.

Neoenergia Brasília, responsible for energy supply in the Federal District, informed that the scheduled interruptions are to allow for the realization of network maintenance services and tree pruning. The company highlighted that if the work is completed ahead of schedule, the network will be re-energized without prior notice. Additionally, the population should be prepared for possible unscheduled interruptions in other regions, without prior communication. In these cases, the occurrence can be registered by phone 116. Customers with hearing and speech impairments can access the service by 0800 701 01 55, as long as they use an adapted device.
Maintenance and Tree Pruning
The maintenance and tree pruning are essential to guarantee the safety and efficiency of the electric energy supply. Tree pruning, in particular, is an important task to avoid that branches and leaves cause short circuits and other problems in the electric network. The preventive maintenance also helps to reduce the number of unscheduled interruptions and to improve the quality of the service. Neoenergia Brasília performs these tasks regularly to ensure the stability and reliability of the energy supply.
The interruption of the energy supply can cause inconvenience to the residents and traders of the affected areas. It is important that the population is prepared and plans in advance to minimize the impacts. Neoenergia Brasília recommends that customers take precautions to avoid losses and damages, such as turning off sensitive equipment and keeping doors and windows closed. In case of emergency, the population can contact the company by phone 116.
