Step 2 - Call Your Power Company
If your neighbors are also without service, call your electric company. (Potomac Edison local telephone numbers are listed on the reverse side of your electric bill or in your phone book.) Give your name, address, phone number and any other pertinent information. During major storms, you may receive a busy signal on your first attempt Please keep dialing until you reach us. Stay dear of any fallen wires and caution others to also keep away.
Step 3 - When Your Power Is Off
When your power is off. leave one light switch in the "on" position so that you’ll know when your electric service is restored. Turn off any major appliances which you may have been using when power was interrupted. Do not open refrigerator or freezer doors While power is off. Food will keep for up to two days if the doors are kept dosed.
