Due to strong winds, trees have fallen onto power lines, causing power outages in several of our electricity distribution areas. As the wind continues to be very strong, it is possible that additional areas may experience intermittent power outages. Our personnel are currently working to repair the faults and restore electricity supply. We will provide further updates as more information becomes available about how the situation develops.

Technical instructions for the electricity network

Within Herrfors Nät-Verkko’s distribution area, contractors must comply with the up-to-date technical requirements and instructions when connecting to the electricity network or carrying out modification work. On this page you will find all the necessary documents and instructions related to the low- and medium-voltage network.

The instructions include, among other things:

  • Connection requirements (for low- and medium-voltage networks)
  • Connection diagrams and example connections
  • Principles of metering and connections
  • Protection requirements (e.g. main fuses, overcurrent protection)
  • Construction requirements (placement of switchboards, cabling)
  • Conditions and documentation for commissioning inspections

The objective is:
