Most failures are caused by overloading of medium voltage cables and transformers, which are more difficult to cool due to high ambient temperatures, the company said.

In most cases, power supply is restored within a few hours, but some faults may take longer to resolve.

E.ON has rescheduled significant part of pre-planned works that are not absolutely necessary for safe operation, and ordered increased readiness and increased operational management supervision across its entire service area.

The company noted that cooler temperatures in the coming days and the cold front arriving with storms may also cause network failures, so it is preparing for this with enhanced readiness.
