When many houses lose power, the issue is a blown transformer or downed power lines. That's for the energy business to work on, and there's very little we can do about it.
When you're the just one without power, that's a sign something's gone incorrect on your end. If you turn the breakers and confirmed that you paid your electrical costs this month, and you're still without power, give us a call. You've got a problem only a knowledgeable electrician can resolve.
Never a good indication. Unplug everything connected to that outlet. Flip the breaker to turn off power to the outlet and call us right now.
