SEPCO load shedding schedule and outage reporting
Outage schedules on the SEPCO network are drawn up feeder by feeder rather than city by city. That is why two houses a few streets apart in Sukkur or Larkana can sit on entirely different windows — and why finding your own feeder is the only way to get a schedule that means anything.
How SEPCO schedules load shedding
Load shedding (planned power cuts to balance supply and demand) is published at the feeder level, not the city level. SEPCO groups consumers by feeder loss category: low-loss feeders see minimal outages, high-loss feeders see longer cuts. Your feeder is tied to your meter — ask your sub-division office (SDO) which feeder serves you.
Where to find today's timings
Current timings are published on the official SEPCO website, via SMS alerts for registered consumers, and through the DISCO's Facebook page. During peak summer, NEPRA requires DISCOs to announce any change at least 24 hours in advance. For a fresh bill while the power is out, use our SEPCO bill check from any mobile data connection.
Planned vs unplanned outages
Planned outages appear on the published schedule and have a clear start/end. Unplanned outages (tripped feeder, damaged transformer, weather) do not. Report unplanned outages on 118 or through the SEPCO complaint portal.
Reducing the impact
Solar with battery backup, an inverter-AC, and LED lighting all reduce your exposure to load shedding and cut your bill. See our residential solar guides for sizing, net metering, and payback.
