Frequently asked questions
What is 105?
105 is the free UK number to call your local electricity network operator to report or get updates on a power cut.
Does this replace a formal continuity plan?
No. It is a starting point for households and small businesses, not a substitute for a full business continuity assessment.
Why ask about cyber?
Cyber attacks on energy infrastructure can cause local or regional disruption. Preparing for a power cut is the same preparation either way.
