Santander: estos son los cortes de la luz de este 20 de enero

To enhance the quality and reliability of electric service in the department, the Electrificadora de Santander (ESSA) will conduct cuts and maintenance this Tuesday, January 20.

The interruptions are necessary to provide better service to users and to ensure the safety of ESSA personnel during the tasks.

The organization announced that upgrading the electrical grid in the area is the reason for the frequent operations, which are essential to offer a higher quality of service.

ESSA advised its clients to unplug electronic devices to prevent damage and to avoid planning activities that depend on electricity, as the supply may be interrupted at any moment.

Here’s the location of the work and the areas that will be affected by the electricity service interruptions, including the duration of the cuts.

Making better use of electricity can lead to a reduction in your electricity bill and help in preserving the environment.

For this, ESSA has several recommendations to help you manage your electricity consumption effectively:

Use LED bulbs, which are more efficient and longer-lasting than traditional incandescent bulbs.

Reducing the use of electronic devices, including unplugging them when not in use, is another option.

Turning off lights in unused areas is important for lowering electricity consumption.

Take advantage of natural sunlight to reduce light usage to only nighttime hours.

Monitor the condition of appliances, as faulty devices may consume more electricity.
