TANGEDCO, under the Tamil Nadu Electricity (Supply) Act of 1948, is responsible for power generation, transmission, and distribution across the state. Following Section 131 of the Electricity Act, 2003, the Tamil Nadu Electricity Board (TNEB) was restructured on November 1, 2010, creating three distinct entities: TNEB Limited, TANGEDCO, and Tamil Nadu Transmission Corporation Limited (TANTRANSCO). These organizations work in coordination to manage electricity services, ensuring generation, distribution, and transmission needs are met across Tamil Nadu.
Residents in the affected areas are advised to plan accordingly, as TANGEDCO will conduct essential maintenance work to improve electricity supply reliability. For details on the power cut areas or updates, customers can refer to TANGEDCO’s announcements or visit local offices.
