How to Check the Load Shedding Schedule

Load shedding has become a major issue in Pakistan, especially when it happens without any proper timetable. It often occurs that electricity goes out earlier than scheduled; sometimes it stays on even during the expected load-shedding time, and occasionally the schedule changes without any prior notice—leaving us completely unaware.

The only solution to all this confusion is to check the load-shedding schedule for your city. This way, you can find out the exact timetable—when the electricity will go and when it will come back.

But now, you can easily check your load-shedding schedule. By entering the 14-digit reference number provided on your electricity bill on the CCMS website, you can view the load shedding schedule according to your city.

To check the load-shedding schedule, follow these steps.

  1. Visit the CCMS website.
  2. Click on “Feeder Details.
  3. Enter your 14-digit reference number in the search bar and click the Search button.
  4. You will be able to see the complete load-shedding schedule for your feeder.
  5. The times marked as ‘OFF’ indicate when your feeder will be shut down.
