Power Outage FAQs

What is Power Outage?

Power outage (also called a power cut, a power blackout, power failure or a blackout) is a short-term or a long-term loss of the electric power to a particular area.

What Causes Power Outages?

• Severe weather (high winds, lightning, winter storms, heat waves, rain or flooding can cause damage to power lines or equipment);
• Other damage to electric transmission lines (vehicle accidents, trees, and animals can cause damage to power lines or equipment);
• Repairing, maintenance or upgrades on power lines and equipment.

What are the Top Outage Safety Tips?

• Stay away from the downed power lines, park vehicles in protected areas;
• Unplug appliances and electronics, limit cell phone use to conserve battery life;
• Use portable generators outdoors only, well away from open windows and doors;
• Pack perishable foods into a cooler, keep refrigerator and freezer doors shut as much as possible.
