CFE schedules 8-hour outage in Soto La Marina, Tamaulipas, this Tuesday

The Comisión Federal de Electricidad (CFE) has scheduled an eight-hour power outage in Soto La Marina, Tamaulipas, for Tuesday, October 27, 2026, from 11:00 to 19:00, to carry out maintenance work on the grid, according to the utility's notice reported by ADN40.

The areas listed are the Soto La Marina-La Pesca highway, La Pesca and its sector, Eje Benito Juárez and Eje Miguel de la Madrid. Ámbito published the same date, time and list of localities, attributed to the CFE.

The notice comes one day after another maintenance window in the same state: on Monday, October 26, the CFE scheduled grid modernization work in Matamoros from 05:00 to 13:00, with temporary and intermittent interruptions in neighborhoods such as Los Presidentes, Praderas, Los Esteros and Del Prado, according to the Luz Noticias report.

For Tamaulipas, with its agricultural and fishing activity and a tourism corridor in La Pesca, each scheduled interruption sets a time that users can check in advance. The Municipal Government of Matamoros asked residents to organize their activities and protect their electronic equipment during Monday's work.

The notices do not include figures on affected customers or on the grid capacity involved. The CFE maintains the 071 number and the CFE Contigo app as reporting channels. In urban areas, restoration of unscheduled faults usually occurs the same day, while in rural areas it can take up to three business days, according to the information published by Ámbito.

For damage to appliances, the CFE offers a free procedure for damage to electrical installations or equipment: the user has up to 15 business days to start it at a Centro de Atención a Clientes, and the resolution is issued within a maximum of 10 business days, according to ADN40.

What remains is to confirm whether the CFE updates the schedule or extends the localities for this Tuesday's outage and whether the maintenance work in Matamoros and Soto La Marina appears in subsequent reports from the region. The 071 channel and the CFE Contigo app provide updates on the notices.
