If you’re experiencing a power outage remember:
- Call our 24-hour emergency number to report the outage
- If you see wires down, do not touch or go near them, and keep other family members away from any downed power lines
- Keep freezers and refrigerators closed
- Turn off electric burners, ovens, electronic equipment and computers (dishwashers, clothes washers and dryers may be left on)
- Turn on your porch or entry light and one inside light so that both you and the power crews can tell when service has been restored
