Some 76,000 consumers have been affected by power breakdowns due to the adverse weather conditions prevailing in the country, Power and Energy Development Director and Media Spokesperson Sulakshana Jayawardena said.
He told the Daily Mirror that nearly 22,000 complaints have been received on Tuesday and Wednesday.
Areas like Kandy, Dambulla, Kurunegala, Kuliyapitiya, Horana, Ingiriya and Ratnapura have been affected by the power outage, he said.
However, the CEB maintenance services are already deployed to restore the power supply with the least possible delay, Jayawardena added.
