How We Restore Power: Three Phases


Class name
sce-header-center
Expose as Block
No

SCE teams are trained to get your lights back on as quickly and safely as possible through a three-phase power-restoration process.

Since restoration times vary depending on the level of damage, when a power outage occurs we ask you to make safety your top concern until our crews can locate and repair damage. Remember: Never go near a downed power line.

Expose as Block

Phase 1

Assess and Protect

We send highly trained workers into the field to locate and monitor safety hazards, including downed wires and poles. Our crews then make sure electricity is off for your safety. They also ensure that power is flowing to critical facilities like hospitals, fire stations, and other essential services.

Phase 2

Repair Damage

Once damage is assessed and safety measures enacted, we dispatch crews to begin repairing substations, main electric lines, and wires. Even if you do not see our crews, rest assured we’re working nearby to get your power restored. New, smart technology allows us to more accurately estimate when repairs will be finished.

Phase 3

Restore Power

After damage is repaired, we begin restoring power to homes and buildings. If you notice that a neighbor’s power is back before yours, don’t worry. Your home may be on a different circuit or line. We appreciate your patience as we work as quickly as possible to turn your lights back on.
