The TT Electricity Commission is taking precautionary measures ahead of Hurricane Beryl, announcing the closure of all its service centres on July 1. However, don’t fret – their emergency call centre remains up and running with additional staff on deck to handle incoming calls.
Rest assured, T&TEC has activated its emergency response plans and crews are on standby to jump into action as soon as necessary. The commission is stressing the importance of safety during this time, urging the public to avoid any potentially life-threatening situations.
In a statement, T&TEC warned against standing on wet surfaces while handling electrical equipment, emphasizing the risk of shock or electrocution. They advise turning off main breakers for any outlets or connections that have been in contact with or are likely to encounter water. Stay safe and stay connected with T&TEC as we weather the storm together.
