safety first!

be sure to report any downed power lines and follow all safety precautions when using generators.

safety is our number one priority. if you are without power, keep the following tips in mind:

• stay away from downed power lines and assume they are energized.
• report a power outage on the myentergy site or call 1-800-9outage. there is no need to speak with a customer service representative to report an outage if completed online.
• if you have a portable generator, use it safely. do not run it in an enclosed space. if connecting the generator to the whole house, do so only if the connection has been installed by a licensed electrician to prevent back feed on to the distribution system.
• do not open your refrigerator or freezer door. food will stay cold much longer this way. if outside temperature is below freezing, consider placing food in an ice chest outside.
• please stay clear of linemen as they work to safely restore power.

we understand the extreme heat during this time. to protect yourself and your families, follow these recommendations from the centers for disease control and prevention:

• drink fluids, even if you don't feel thirsty.
• wear loose, lightweight clothing and a hat.
• replace salt lost from sweating by drinking fruit juice or sports drinks.
• avoid spending time outdoors during the hottest part of the day, from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m.
• wear sunscreen: a sunburn affects the body's ability to cool itself.
• air conditioning is the best way to cool off; if you are using a generator, do so safely.
• check on seniors, who can be particularly susceptible to extreme temperatures.

stay informed:

be sure to stay informed throughout the restoration process using the following resources:
