Safety Messages

1. If the storm damaged the weather head connection on your home, you will need to have a licensed electrician make repairs to this equipment before power is restored to your home or facility.
2. Please consider any downed power lines energized and dangerous. Please stay at least 10 feet away while keeping children and pets away. You can report a downed line by calling 1-833-766-6884 (1-833-PSO-OUTG).
3. Please do not approach crews who are working to restore power. Their focus must continue to be to work safely without interruption.

Scams

1. PSO has received reports of scammers calling customers asking for money to restore power.
2. If you receive this type of call, hang up and report it at psoklahoma.com/account/bills/fraud-scams.

Generator Safety

1. If you use a generator, please follow the manufacturer’s operating instructions. Do not operate the unit indoors. Connect appliances directly to the generator’s electric outlet, not to the main electrical panel of your home or business.
2. Before you evacuate your house please disconnect/open your home’s main electrical breaker after you turn off the generator. This will eliminate any possibility of the generator feeding power back into PSO’s electric system.
