Customers affected by the cable fault in Katikati this week will be disconnected today between 10.30am and 1.30pm.
The damaged cable that caused Tuesday's outage has been repaired, and today's planned outage will allow crews to safely reconnect customers to the network and remove the generators.
More than 700 customers lost power just after 9am Tuesday due an underground cable fault.
Powerco thanked customers for their patience and understanding.
