Davao Light and Power Co., Inc. (Davao Light) will conduct switching power interruptions on Saturday and Sunday, October 25 and 26, affecting customers in different parts of Davao City. This advisory reflects changes to the schedule initially released by the company on October 22, 2025.

The switching power interruptions are necessary to facilitate pole relocation activities for the Samal Bridge Project and conduct line works at the Pampanga Substation.

To avoid a longer power interruption, the loads from the affected lines will be transferred to a nearby substation for 1 hour starting anytime between 10:00 p.m. to 11:00 p.m. on Saturday, October 25. Meanwhile, the normalization or return of loads to their normal setup will be conducted for 1 hour starting anytime between 10:00 a.m. to 11:00 a.m. on Sunday, October 26.

Specifically affected are those from a portion of J.P. Laurel Avenue from crossing Mamay to Carmelite Monastery and from crossing Arroyo Street to Azuela, including the entire Mamay Road, a portion of Fortune Homes, and Stella Hizon Road, and along Daang Maharlika from Azuela to crossing Panacan.

In connection, a 12-hour power interruption will be conducted to facilitate the necessary works. This will be from 10:00 p.m. on Saturday, October 25, to 10:00 a.m. on Sunday, October 26, affecting customers along Daang Maharlika from Caltex in crossing Azuela to fronting Security Bank Lanang, including West Insular Village, and those along Daang Maharlika from Puregold to Mercury Drug in Pampanga, including Stella Hizon Road.

Davao Light apologizes for the inconvenience caused by these scheduled power interruptions. But it will exert all efforts to restore electric service as scheduled or earlier. However, there may be instances where restoration may extend beyond the schedule due to unavoidable circumstances.

Safety is paramount to the company, and Davao Light reminds the public to always take extra precautions when passing by activity areas where line repairs and maintenance are being done. Please heed and follow warning signs, especially in areas where personnel operate heavy equipment.

Please contact our 24/7 Customer Contact Service at (082) 229 3572 or 0919 056 3572 for any power interruption that will fall outside the given schedule.
