What should I do if there is a power outage?

If you experience a power outage, there are several steps you can take to ensure your safety and stay informed. First, it is important to check if your entire neighborhood is affected or if it is just your home that has lost power. You can do this by looking outside to see if nearby homes have lights on. Next, it is advisable to check the circuit breakers in your home to determine if any have tripped. If it is a general outage, it is a good idea to report it to your energy provider. For Bounce Energy, customers can check their website for information on how to report outages or for updates on restoration times. Additionally, ensure you have flashlights, batteries, and non-perishable food items available. Stay away from downed power lines and avoid using candles, as they can pose a fire hazard. Keeping a battery-powered radio can also be helpful for updates.
