A neighbour-reported board of where the power is out in Jinja right now — so you can tell if it is just your house or the whole area, with UEDCL's toll-free fault line.
When the power goes, the first question is always the same: is it just my house, or the whole area? This board lets neighbours answer it for each other. Tap the area you are in to report a cut, and see where else people are reporting one right now.
It is run by residents, not the power company — so use it alongside UEDCL's fault line below, not instead of it.
No power cuts reported right now.

How this works
UEDCL distributes Jinja's power (it took over from Umeme in 2025). The fault line is toll-free. UEDCL also publishes planned shutdowns and outage alerts by district on its website — worth checking when a cut lasts.
Water and power are linked here: NWSC's Masese pumps run on the same grid, so a long power cut often means the taps go quiet too. NWSC's toll-free lines are 0800 200 977 and 0800 300 977.
