HAZECO Load Shedding Schedule: 0 to 8 Hours a Day by Feeder in Abbottabad, Mansehra and Haripur (27 Feeders Checked)

The Hazara Electric Supply Company (HAZECO) is the newer power company for the Hazara division of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa. It serves Abbottabad, Haripur, Mansehra, Battagram, Torghar, Upper Kohistan, Lower Kohistan and Kolai-Palas, according to its website. Its website links to the complaint portal of the Power Information Technology Company (PITC), and PITC's Load Management Portal shows each feeder's planned hours for today and tomorrow.

HAZECO load shedding hours by feeder, checked 10 November 2026

Planned HAZECO load shedding on 10 November 2026 ran from 0 to 8 hours a day across 27 feeders. City, university, hospital and industrial feeders mostly had 0 hours. The longest planned cut was 8 hours, on the Lassan Nawab feeder in rural Mansehra.

We searched PITC's feeder list by grid station name for Abbottabad, Mansehra and Haripur, then opened each feeder the search returned at about 4:00 am on 10 November. PITC still labels these feeders with PESCO's name in its search results, but the Abbottabad grid carries a "HAZ" tag and the sub divisions are Hazara ones. "Planned hours" is PITC's "Planned Load Shedding" figure. "Off on 9 Nov" is PITC's "Yesterday Outage History".

Some feeders were off for longer than planned on 9 November. Mirpur in Haripur was off for 4 hours 40 minutes against 2 planned. Ali Khan and NRTC in Haripur had 0 planned hours but were off for more than 2 hours each. Time off beyond the plan usually means a fault or a maintenance shutdown, not load shedding.

Abbottabad, Haripur and Mansehra compared

Abbottabad and Haripur had the fewest planned cuts in our check. Mansehra had more, because its rural feeders carry 2 to 8 hours. Six of Mansehra's 10 feeders had some load shedding, against 2 of 10 in Abbottabad and 2 of 7 in Haripur.

We could not check Battagram, Torghar, Kohistan or Kolai-Palas. PITC's grid search returned no feeders for Battagram or Havelian, so those areas are not in the table. Use your reference number on the portal to see your own hours there.

Why some HAZECO feeders get load shedding and others do not

PITC gives each feeder a "Category" from 1 to 7, and on HAZECO feeders the hours rise with it. Category 1 and 2 feeders had 0 hours, category 3 feeders had 2 hours, category 4 had 4 hours and the one category 5 feeder had 8 hours.

PITC prints the same number under "Line Loss", which suggests the category tracks losses on the feeder. That matches how power companies across Pakistan set load shedding: feeders with low losses and good bill recovery get fewer cuts. Compare HAZECO's 0 to 8 hours with 20 hours on many feeders in upper Sindh in our SEPCO load shedding schedule. Our guide on when load shedding breaks NEPRA's rules explains what the regulator allows.

How to check your HAZECO load shedding schedule online

Use the PITC Load Management Portal with your reference number. It shows today's planned hours, tomorrow's hourly plan and the hours your feeder was actually off. It is free and works in a phone browser.

1. Open ccms.pitc.com.pk/FeederDetails.
2. Type your 14 digit reference number from your HAZECO bill, or your 6 digit feeder code.
3. Read "Planned Load Shedding" for today's total hours.
4. Check the "Tomorrow Schedule" column for the hours that will be off.
5. Compare "Actual Outage Today" with the plan, and call 118 if it runs well over.

Your reference number is printed on your bill, which you can download free from our HAZECO bill check page. The same portal works for other companies too, as our load shedding by reference number guide shows.

How to complain about a HAZECO outage

Call HAZECO's helpline, 118, or register a complaint online at ccms.pitc.com.pk/complaint. Complain when your feeder is off longer than planned, or when a 0 hour feeder goes off without a shutdown notice.

A fault shows on the portal as "OFF (Unplanned)". At about 4:00 am on 10 November, Lassan Nawab in Mansehra showed that status. If 118 is busy, the office numbers for every sub division are in our HAZECO complaint number list. Keep the complaint number you are given, because you need it to take the case to NEPRA later.
