Avoid Power Outages This Winter

Winter storms and freezing temperatures often bring sudden power outages. Here’s how to protect your home and family before the next big storm hits:

- **Check your backup power.** Make sure your generator starts easily and you have enough fuel.

- **Install surge protection.** Power surges can happen when the power returns after an outage.

- **Keep flashlights and batteries handy.** Avoid using candles for light if possible.

- **Know your panel.** Label circuits so you can quickly shut off or reset them if needed.

- **Unplug sensitive electronics.** This prevents damage when power fluctuates.

If you experience frequent outages or flickering lights, your electrical service may need an upgrade. Contact E&A ELECTRIC LLC to inspect and prepare your system before winter weather strikes.
