A three-hour power shedding will be in place today and no power  shedding has been announced during the night, the Public Utilities  Commission of Sri Lanka (PUCSL) said.

 PUCSL Chairman Janaka Ratnayake said a three hour power cut will be in place for all groups from 8.30 am to 5.30 pm today.

 However, consumers would experience a 30-minute unscheduled  power shedding during peak hours if necessary to manage excess demand. 

Therefore, consumers are kindly advised to reduce consumption between  6 pm and 10 pm (late evening peak hours) to avoid interruption.
