Overview
- Epec’s Friday timetable covers morning and early afternoon slots across localities including Marcos Juárez, General Roca, La Carlota and Córdoba city neighborhoods for tasks such as load transfers and aerial line pruning.
- On Saturday, August 16, scheduled cuts range from brief 07:00–07:15 interventions in Amboy and Rumipal to multi-hour aerial maintenance in San Francisco neighborhoods and Río Cuarto outskirts.
- The outages form part of a province-wide push to carry out transformer energizations, secondary distribution upgrades and vegetation management to strengthen grid resilience.
- Residents and businesses are advised to disconnect electronics, secure lighting and water reserves and consult Epec’s website for the latest schedules and weather-related updates.
- Similar planned maintenance by CFE, AEY and EDES reflects a coordinated regional effort to modernize Argentina’s aging electricity infrastructure.
