Customer Engagement survey now under way

MainPower is currently undertaking its annual Customer Pulse survey.

You may receive an email from our survey provider, Purple Ink, asking you to answer some questions about your experience with MainPower and our staff, and your awareness of what we do. 

The answers we get from these surveys help us develop our Asset Management Plan and inform our strategic direction for the next decade.

If you have any questions, please feel free to get in touch with our Network Services Representatives or drop us a line. The Survey is due to close at the end of this week (Friday 28 November or thereabouts).

Thank you to everyone who takes part and helps us create a smarter future to deliver local value.

We’re making great progress restoring power across the network. Currently there are 85 customers without power, but we have a large number of crews in multiple locations again today.

We will have a helicopter operating in the Hurunui Mouth area around midday today. The helicopter is a twin engine and is carrying out complex river crossing repairs. It will be travelling low and slow, and it will be quite loud.

Please keep the area clear so our teams can carry out these urgent repairs to restore power to the area.

Estimated restoration times are regularly being uploaded to the Outage Map.

If you have any concerns or questions, please call our customer service team on 0800 30 90 80.

TREAT ALL POWER LINES AS LIVE AT ALL TIMES. Please stay away from any downed lines and report any sighting to us on 0800 30 90 80.

For the most recent updates on outrages, please check our outage map. To report an outage, call 0800 30 90 80.

We appreciate your understanding and patience during this time.
