August 5, 2021 – Reliability is of the utmost importance at LCEC. Employees work around the clock to keep the lights on for customers, but even with that dedication, power outages can and do happen. Power outages can result from a variety of causes including storms, animals, vehicle accidents, fallen trees and even sailboats coming into contact with power lines. When an outage is detected and/or reported, field crews are dispatched ASAP to impacted areas. Restoration begins with repairs that restore service to the largest number of customers in the least amount of time. In the event of an outage, customers can view the LCEC Outage Map at lcec.net to stay informed as restoration takes place. Customers can rest assured knowing that LCEC works 24/7/365 to deliver the power that energizes our community. We thank our customers for their patience when power outages do occur, and for their confidence in the work we do!
