There are a number of power outages planned for Richmond this week

Two areas of Richmond will experience power outages this week as BC Hydro has scheduled repair and replacement work.

BC Hydro plans regular power outages to perform work on equipment or power lines that require them to be de-energized, according to its website.

“By planning the outage and doing the necessary work, our crews can prevent a potential unplanned emergency outage in the future, where a part of the system unexpectedly fails or malfunctions,” says BC Hydro's website.

Here are the power outages scheduled for this week:.

June 30 from 8 a.m. to 12 p.m.

Planned work on BC Hydro equipment will affect 17 customers at:

  • 7000 Williams Rd. Units 1 to 15

July 3 from 9 a.m. to 6 p.m.

Pole replacement work will affect 14 customers at:

  • 6020, 6080, 6082 and 6086 Russ Baker Way
