Power shutdowns not only affect electricity supply but also have an indirect impact on essential services such as water supply and internet connectivity. In many areas, water distribution depends on electric pumps, and power interruptions can lead to low water pressure or temporary shortages, especially in high-rise buildings. Similarly, internet routers, network towers, and service provider infrastructure require uninterrupted power, and prolonged outages may result in slow speeds or temporary disconnections, thereby disrupting daily activities.
