Things to try before reporting your outage:
- Check your neighbors house - Are their lights out? If they have power, it may be a problem isolated to your home.
- Check the breakers - Is the main breaker off? Try turning the switch all the way to the off position then back to the on position.
To report an outage please call our number below that is available 24 hours a day, seven days a week.
