Six municipalities served by the Pampanga III Electric Cooperative (Pelco-3) will experience a 12-hour power outage on March 20 due to scheduled maintenance by the National Grid Corporation of the Philippines (NGCP).
In an advisory, Pelco-3 said the affected areas include Apalit, Macabebe, Masantol, Minalin, San Simon, and Sto. Tomas.
The power interruption will run from 6 a.m. to 6 p.m.
Pelco-3 said the outage is necessary to facilitate the "reconductoring" of the North Luzon Expressway-Pau 69kV Line Segment from Pole 1 to 19.
