Colombo, May 23 (Daily Mirror)- The Ceylon Electricity Board (CEB) has reported over 36,900 breakdowns resulting in power interruptions to more than 300,000 consumers in the last three days due to the inclement weather, Power and Energy Minister Kanchana Wijsekara said today.
He said in a statement on X that additional service staff has been assigned to attend to the breakdowns and the CEB management and service staff are working 24 hours to restore power to the affected consumers.
"If consumers are unable to repot power interruptions through the CEB hotline 1987, they can use the SMS option to 1987 with BD and the electricity consumer number to follow, use the CEB Care app or through http://cebcare.ceb.lk," he said.
