Important to know when you make an emergency call

Please let us know following:

  • Who you are

If the power is off:

  • Circumstances of the power outage, check if the power outage is only in your house/ apartment, if the lights are off at your neighbors and if the streetlights are off too?
  • Check if the power outage is in the whole house/ apartment or just in one/few room/s

If there is a large power outage and it concerns more than one household our telephone lines can be very busy, please try to call us again.

 

The best tips when there is a power outage you can find here:

If the electricity lines are damaged due to for example, bad weather and trees are on the electricity line, it can cause a so called zero error.

 

Zero error is very serious and needs to be repaired immediately. Read more about Zero error and how you can recognize it.
