Why is this outage happening?
The electrical distribution system in your area is in need of repairs. If we do not make these repairs, there is a risk that your area will experience an unplanned outage. Unplanned outages generally result in more customer inconvenience since the duration of the outage is much longer.
By scheduling a planned outage, we can make the necessary repairs in a much shorter period of time, thereby minimizing the inconvenience for customers. Planned outages are carefully orchestrated with all crews and materials in place before our lines are actually de-energized.
Concern about Life Support customers·
Because power outages can happen at anytime, we recommend that customers who rely on special equipment have backup systems to insure a continuous supply of power.
By providing all customers with advance notice of a planned interruption, we hope that customers will have sufficient time to verify that their backup systems are in good working order or to make alternate arrangements during the time of the planned outage.
Will the planned outage affect the food in my refrigerator?
Try to leave the refrigerator or freezer doors closed during the planned power outage. If the doors remain closed, refrigerated food can stay cool for about six to nine hours. Frozen food can remain safe for up to 24 hours.
