Overview
- Sedapal has published programmed water suspensions for October 16–17 that affect multiple Lima districts and in some areas may last up to 12 hours.
- Pluz Energía and other distributors posted planned power outages for October 17–18 with some interruptions reported to run as long as about 10 hours.
- Both utilities released district-level timetables with estimated start and restoration times so residents can check whether their neighborhood will be affected.
- To reduce hardship, Sedapal is deploying water tanker trucks and operating its Aquafono line (01 317-8000) while energy companies offer online outage-lookup tools that require customer numbers.
- The companies say the works are preventive measures to clean reservoirs, tie in pipes and maintain networks to improve long-term service, but overlapping water and electricity cuts could create short-term disruption for households and businesses.
