Check it is a network outage
If your whole street is dark, it is a Endeavour Energy network outage. If only your home is out, check your switchboard for a tripped safety switch first.
Got a Endeavour Energy power outage? Endeavour Energy is the distributor that owns the network in New South Wales, so it, not your retailer, is who you call and who restores supply. This page shows how to report a Endeavour power outage, where to find the live outage map, what to do during a blackout, and the compensation you may be owed for a long or repeated outage.
In a blackout
Four steps to report a Endeavour outage and stay safe while you wait for power to come back on.
If your whole street is dark, it is a Endeavour Energy network outage. If only your home is out, check your switchboard for a tripped safety switch first.
Look up the Endeavour Energy outage map for a known outage in your area, the cause and an estimated restoration time, updated live.
If it is not already listed, report it on the 24/7 faults line 13 10 03. Have your address and, if you can, your National Metering Identifier (NMI) from your bill.
Keep clear of any fallen powerlines (at least 8 metres), keep the fridge shut, and turn off sensitive appliances at the wall until power is stable.
The quickest way to check a Endeavour power outage today is the live outage map on the Endeavour Energy website. It shows current and planned outages, the suburbs affected, the likely cause and an estimated restoration time, refreshed continuously. Check there first before you call, as a known outage is already being worked on.
Open the Endeavour outage mapIf you see a fallen powerline, sparking, or anyone is in danger, call Triple Zero (000) immediately and stay at least 8 metres clear, treating every line as live. Then report the network fault to Endeavour Energy on 13 10 03.
Money back
Long or repeated blackouts can entitle you to a payment, and many households never realise it.
Endeavour Energy pays an automatic Guaranteed Service Level (GSL) credit when the number or duration of your interruptions passes the set threshold in a financial year.
The payment lands as an automatic credit on your next bill, passed through your retailer, with no claim to lodge. Read our guide to power outage compensation for the thresholds and how to check yours.

Endeavour Energy pays an automatic Guaranteed Service Level (GSL) credit when the number or duration of your interruptions passes the set threshold in a financial year. The credit usually appears on your next bill through your retailer, with no claim needed. See our power outage compensation guide for the detail.
A planned outage is scheduled by Endeavour Energy for maintenance or upgrades, and you must be given advance notice (usually a letter, SMS or email a few days ahead). An unplanned outage is a fault from storms, fallen trees, equipment failure or a car hitting a pole, with no warning. Both show on the Endeavour outage map, but only unplanned outages need reporting.
Network charges are fixed by your distributor, but they are only part of your bill. The retailer's energy and supply charges are the part you control. Compare retailers that supply your address to find a cheaper plan.
