Scheduled Interruptions
If we plan to interrupt service to more than 10 customers or for more than 5 hours, we must give you at least 24 hours notice. We will give you more notice whenever possible. If your service must be interrupted without notice for more than 3 hours due to storms or other emergencies, we will try to let you know as soon as possible how long you are likely to be without service. We will generally use the local radio stations in these instances.
If you are without power, first check to see if your neighbors have power. If they do, check your electrical entrance box for tripped breakers or blown fuses. If you still do not have power, call us at: 207-760-2300 or 1-877-655-4448.
If being without service poses a danger to any member of your household (presence of a life support system, for example), notify us. We will put your name on a priority list to restore service as soon as possible.
