Yes, surge protectors do need to be changed regularly. Why do surge protectors wear out? That’s because each time a surge protector absorbs a surge, its internal components degrade slightly. Over time, or after absorbing a large surge, the protector’s ability to shield your devices diminishes, reducing its effectiveness.

You can determine if your surge protector needs replacing by looking for visible signs of damage, such as scorching or melting, or if it is not working as expected. Pay attention to an alarm going off, unusual clicking sounds, or if it keeps turning off unexpectedly.

Check the indicator lights; if they show a loss of protection or if the light is on but there’s no power, it’s likely a sign of failure and time for a replacement.

Additionally, if your surge protector has experienced a significant power surge or is several years old, it may be time for a surge protector expiration date, and you need to replace it.

Severe weather brings heavy rains, strong winds and lightning strikes which can damage power line equipment and cause outages.

When an incident occurs and you have a temporary outage, it's a sign that one of our protection devices has been activated. The power is interrupted as the device assesses the nature of the fault. This assessment will decide whether, for example, a tree branch made contact but has already fallen off without damage; or something more serious which requires a team to be dispatched.

These layers protect your devices and your home as we continue to deliver safe, reliable and sustainable energy solutions.

If you experience a power outage, please report it using the BEL 24-7 or calling toll-free 0-800-235-2273. Weather conditions may delay our team’s response, but the situation will be addressed as soon as it is safe to do so.

Advisories are out on the George Price Highway in Western Belize, please take extra precautions when driving through flood waters and do your best to estimate the depth of the water.

- Six inches of water will reach the bottom of most passenger cars causing loss of control and possible stalling.

- A foot of water will float many vehicles

- Two feet of rushing water can carry away most vehicles including sport utility vehicles (SUV's) and pick-ups.

Report hazards or damages to the power system using the BEL 24-7 or calling toll-free 0-800-235-2273.

As our teams continue to manage the impacts of high temperatures on the grid, our Customers can rest assured that we are working with our bulk power producers to manage the spikes in power consumption countrywide.

You can make a difference by reducing your electricity usage, where possible, particularly during peak consumption hours from midday through the afternoon and in the evenings up to 9pm.

Stay tuned to the page for energy saving tips, and download the BEL 24-7 APP for tools to help monitor your energy trends.

The way Belize uses electricity is changing.

Families are using more devices, smarter appliances, and connected technology. Businesses are growing, industries are expanding, and communities are finding new ways to live, work, and move forward.

Behind that progress, the energy system must continue to grow with Belize. At BEL, modernizing the grid is part of preparing for what comes next.
