    Tropical Cyclone Koji - 10 January

    Ergon Energy field crews are prepared for the potential impact of Tropical Cyclone Koji across the north Queensland region.

    • The risk of fallen powerlines increases during storm season.
    • Report damaged, fallen, or sagging powerlines to Ergon Network on 13 16 70, and always treat them as live and dangerous – keep well away.
    • If you see fallen powerlines, stay well away from them and report any life-threatening faults to Ergon Network on 13 16 70 or emergency services on 000.
    • Ergon Energy’s Outage Finder is a useful tool if you don’t have anything specific to report but you want to confirm that we are aware of any outage affecting your area.
    • Keep generators high and dry and only use in a well-ventilated location, never indoors.
    • If your premises has been inundated, Ergon Network cannot restore power to it until a licenced electrician has completed a safety check. Ergon Network does not arrange this check - this is up to the owner or customer to arrange.
    • If you are moving around in boats, watch for powerlines and stay clear. Floodwaters can hide electrical equipment, push poles over, and greatly reduce the clearance to overhead powerlines.
