If you have information concerning the outage or would prefer to speak with a Customer Care Representative, call 1-800-522-3793.

The largest power outage in history by number of people affected took place in Northern India. On 30 and 31 July 2012, two severe blackouts occurred, the second of which affected some 670 million people—half the country's population, or almost 10% of the world's population.

It can happen for many reasons, such as a downed power line, a transformer failure, or a power plant shutdown. You should contact your power company to fix this and report the outage.

A co-op is a non-profit electric utility that is owned by the consumers it serves. EnergyUnited is governed by a board of directors elected by members like you with a goal of providing at-cost electric service.

In the event electric service is disconnected and subsequent reconnection, payment must be made for any un- paid charges that may have accrued to date; a $25.00 reconnection fee, as well as payment to establish a mini- mum credit balance of $50.00.

Average Duration of Power Outages

On average, most technical or minor outages in the USA last about 1-2 hours. However, those caused by major natural disasters can extend for days or even weeks.

As the USDA notes in Keeping Food Safe During an Emergency, your refrigerator will keep food safe for up to 4 hours during a power outage. Keep the door closed as much as possible. Discard refrigerated perishable food such as meat, poultry, fish, eggs, and leftovers after 4 hours without power.

What Happened? August 14 and 15, 2003 - The northeastern U.S. and southern Canada suffered the worst power blackout in history.

More blackouts are expected in 2024 and beyond.

"This assessment provides clear evidence of growing resource adequacy concerns over the next 10 years," the report states. Many regions are considered at heightened risk only under extreme weather conditions.

How long did the 1965 blackout last? ›

The blackout, which lasted for about 14 hours, was caused by a faulty relay in the Adam Beck Station of Ontario, Canada. Traffic lights ceased working, making travel by cars and busses extremely difficult. Trains carrying passengers were stuck in tunnels and many were stuck in elevators.

For power cuts that don't have an obvious cause, you'll need to contact a qualified electrician to inspect your home to identify the problem. The power cut could be due to loose wiring, an overloaded circuit, or another potentially hazardous cause that needs addressing asap.

My neighbor has power and I don't – what gives? It could be that your neighbor is on a different circuit, but there could be trouble on just your section of the line or with the equipment that services you directly.

There are many reasons why you might experience a power outage in your area – from planned maintenance on the network to unexpected outages due to severe weather, car accidents, high winds, hot weather, wildlife or technical issues.
