Meralco ready 24/7 for Undas 2025

As Filipinos prepare to observe All Saints’ Day and All Souls’ Day, Manuel V. Pangilinan-led Manila Electric Company (Meralco) assures customers that it will remain on full alert throughout the Undas weekend, with crews and personnel ready to respond to electricity service concerns 24/7.

“We are one with the nation in commemorating Undas,” said Meralco vice president and head of Corporate Communications Joe R. Zaldarriaga.

All Meralco Business Centers will resume operations on 3 November.

Safety tips

With thousands expected to visit cemeteries and travel out of town, Meralco reminds the public to observe these electrical safety tips for a safe and worry-free weekend:

• Turn off appliances when not in use, especially if leaving home for several days.

• Avoid “octopus connections” or plugging multiple devices into a single outlet.

• Keep electrical wires, connectors, and other equipment dry at all times.

• Do not place electrical cords under rugs or carpets, as this may damage insulation.

• Keep flammable materials away from outdoor lighting and heat sources.

Customers can report their concerns through the My Meralco app or through Meralco’s official social media accounts on Facebook (www.facebook.com/meralco) and X formerly Twitter (@meralco).

They may also text their concerns to 0920-9716211 or 0917-5516211 or contact the Meralco Hotline at 16211.
