I’m on the Outage Priority list due to a medical condition. Why wouldn’t my power be the first restored?

MEC isn’t necessarily able to restore service to the Outage Priority locations first. We must repair the damage to the backbone of the electric system before turning our attention to individual priority accounts.

Members who depend on electrical equipment for a medical necessity should always have alternate plans in place in case the power goes out for an extended period of time. This may include a backup power source, extra medical supplies, or an alternate location until the power is restored.
