What to do if the power goes out


  • Do NOT open your refrigerator or freezer unless necessary. Keeping food cold.
  • Do NOT use a propane or charcoal grill in your house.
  • Run a small stream of water from your faucets to keep your pipes from freezing.
  • Make use of sunshine for heat, if available, by opening blinds or window coverings in your home during the day and closing them at night.
  • Stay away from power lines and tree limbs. The weight of ice or snow can cause them to break.


During a storm it is common for a tree branch to come down and pull the meter can away from your home. The meter can must be reattached by a licensed electrican before we can restore service. View customer responsibilites.
