Cheltenham Power Cuts

This page tracks live power cuts affecting Cheltenham postcodes (GL50–GL54), sourced from National Grid Electricity Distribution, the electricity distribution network operator for Gloucestershire, formerly Western Power Distribution. Their Live Power Cuts open dataset updates continuously as incidents are reported, confirmed and restored.

If you’re in a power cut right now, call 105 — the free, national number that connects you to your local electricity network operator, day or night. Call 999 as well if there’s a risk to life, such as damage to power lines or a substation.

When the unplanned list below is empty, there’s no fault recorded against a Cheltenham postcode. Planned work booked by the network operator, including work that has the power off right now, is listed separately, with its start and end times. Restored cuts move to the power cuts history, and everything here is also published as an Atom feed.

Frequently Asked Questions

Where Does This Data Come From?

What Should I Do in a Power Cut?

  • Call 105, the free 24/7 national power cut number, to report it or check for known outages in your area. Call 999 too if there's a risk to life, such as damage to power lines or a substation.

Why Is the List Sometimes Empty?

  • Most of the time there's no power cut affecting Cheltenham, so the unplanned list and map are empty — that's expected, not a sign the feed has stopped working.

Does This Cover Planned Outages Too?

  • Yes. Planned maintenance work has its own planned power cuts table, with the start and end times, and appears on the map alongside unplanned faults.

How Often Does This Update?

  • The underlying NGED feed updates near real-time; this page and its feed are checked every 5 minutes.

Can I See Past Power Cuts?

  • Yes. Once a power cut against a Cheltenham postcode has been restored, it moves to the power cuts history page, with how many properties it affected.
