Sign up for Alerts & Text Messaging

 

Sign up for Alerts & Text Messaging

 Our system works best when it receives plenty of information to analyze. Please report your outage even if a neighbor has already reported their power is out. The more information we have, the better. If you’re not enrolled in outage alerts and text messaging, now is a great time to sign up:

Text REG to 544487 (LIGHTS) to enroll in text messaging. You can get an update for your reported outage by texting STAT to 544487. Sign into your online account and update the Text & Email Alerts page to receive restoration updates via email or text after you’ve reported your outage.

If you should lose power due to the weather, stay safe with these tips: 
Use a flashlight or battery-powered lantern for light. Use care when burning candles; open flames are a dangerous fire hazard. When operating a generator, the power coming into the home should always be disconnected. Otherwise, power from the generator could be sent back onto power lines, creating a hazardous situation for workers.

Assume all downed or low-hanging power lines are energized and dangerous. Stay at least 30 feet away and report them ASAP to 9-1-1. Stay alert for downed power lines that may be hidden or tangled in trees or other debris.
