Outages

PLANNED OUTAGE – THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER 30TH, 2021 in the East Fork area – specifically the Apache Dawn & Turkey Creek areas of East Fork. Crews are expected to begin the outage at approximately 9:30 a.m. and they expect it to last for approximately 2 hours.

NEC is planning to perform routine and preventative maintenance on Thursday, September 30, 2021. Due to the nature of the maintenance, and the safety of our crews, we will need to take an outage during that time.

The September 30th maintenance is expected to begin at 9:30 a.m. Crews do not expect the outage to last longer than 2 hours. Although we expect the outage to be short in time, please make sure that you plan ahead for any potential extended outage by following normal emergency preparedness procedures. For example, if you require oxygen or other life saving measures during that time please make sure you have a backup battery or other contingencies put in place, open your refrigerator as little as possible, have fuel for any generators, etc. You can find more emergency preparedness tips from the Arizona Emergency Information Network on their Facebook page, twitter, or at ein.az.gov.

FOR THE SAFETY OF OUR CREWS We request that you make sure your generator has been installed/inspected by a qualified electrician. Generators that are installed incorrectly can back feed into our lines even if they are de-energized and could potentially cause serious injury or prove fatal to our crew members. If you have any questions or concerns regarding the March 1st outage, please reach out to us at 928-368-5118 or 800-543-6324.
