How to report a power cut in Leitrim

  1. Check your fuseboard. If neighbours still have power, a tripped RCD or main switch in your own home is the most likely cause.
  2. Check the map above or enter your Eircode on PowerCheck. If your area is listed, ESB already knows and the estimated restore time is shown.
  3. Ring ESB Networks on 1800 372 999 if nothing is listed. The line is free and open 24/7. Your electricity supplier cannot fix outages.
  4. Fallen line? Stay at least 20 metres away and ring 1800 372 999 straight away. Ring 999 if there is a fire risk.

More detail on restoration times, damage claims and vulnerable customer registration is in our full ESB power outage guide.

Keeping the power on in Leitrim during an outage

Standard solar panels switch off when the grid goes down. A battery with a backup (EPS) function keeps lights, fridge, Wi-Fi and heating controls running through a power cut, then tops itself up from the panels. See how it works in our battery storage guide, or compare solar panel installers in Leitrim.
