Will there be outages when construction is being done?

There can be power outages when installing covered conductor or undergrounding overhead lines. SCE recognizes that temporary outages can be inconvenient. The outages are necessary to ensure worker and public safety while the work is taking place. These outages are typically planned and communicated to customers in advance to minimize inconvenience. SCE will work to notify customers by phone, text, email or mail at least 72 hours before the outages so you can take any necessary precautions. Please be aware, however, that timing can change for safety reasons. It’s possible that an outage can be rescheduled, canceled or end earlier than planned. A notification will include a Scheduled Outage Number that may be entered into SCE’s Outage Map to receive the latest updates.
