⚡ POWER RESTORATION ADVISORY ⚡
Following the recent power outage over the weekend, UPMO has substantially completed the necessary repair works. Damaged lightning arresters, as well as affected main power lines and cables, have been replaced to ensure the safe and reliable restoration of electrical service.
🔧 As part of the final stage of the restoration process, UPMO will conduct tapping, energization, and testing of newly installed and commissioned electrical system components today, June 15, 2026, starting at 1:30 PM onwards. UPLB Upper and Lower Campus shall be affected by these activities.
⚠️ During this activity, please expect momentary power interruptions, voltage fluctuations, and intermittent power restoration as testing and commissioning procedures are carried out.
🚨 IMPORTANT SAFETY NOTICE
To protect your equipment from possible damage due to power surges or voltage fluctuations, all offices, laboratories, and work areas are strongly advised to:
🔌 Unplug or switch off high-power and sensitive electrical equipment, including:
- Laboratory instruments and equipment
- Computers, servers, and network devices
- Refrigerators and freezers
- Air-conditioning units
- Audio-visual equipment
- Other sensitive or heavy electrical loads
⚡ This precaution is highly recommended to prevent equipment damage during the energization and testing phase of the electrical system.
🛠️ Our technical personnel are working diligently to complete the remaining activities safely and efficiently and to fully restore stable power service to the university as soon as possible.
🙏 We sincerely thank you for your continued understanding, cooperation, and patience throughout this restoration effort.
