When my power comes back on after a storm, will it stay on?

Once your ser­vice is restored every effort will be made to keep it on. Keep in mind, how­ev­er, that as we repair oth­er parts of the sys­tem, some inter­rup­tions may be required. In addi­tion, YEC works close­ly with coun­ty, city and state agen­cies. At their request, we may have to inter­rupt a cir­cuit if there is a fire or some oth­er emer­gency. And dur­ing ice storms, it is not uncom­mon for the weight of ice on the line or sur­round­ing trees to cause pow­er lines to break. If the storm con­tin­ues, a crew may restore your pow­er, and then, with the fur­ther accu­mu­la­tion of ice on the lines, your lines may break again.
