What to do During a Power Outage
-
Report the outage by calling 765-973-7200, Opt#5. Also give information about downed power lines.
Listen to your radio for updates during large or prolonged outages:
WFMG 101.3 FM
WHON 930 AM
WQLK 96.1 FM
WKBV 1490 AM
Check the Palladium-Item web site for updates.
Be careful if you use alternative heat, light and cooking sources that increase the risk of a fire.
Keep refrigerator and freezer doors closed to help prevent cold foods from spoiling.
If you have a generator, refer to the owner's manual from the manufacturer to make sure you are following the proper guidelines.
Never connect a portable generator to existing house wiring. It could back feed on power lines -- sending electricity out toward crews causing them serious or fatal injuries.
