MyAlerts is intended for use during normal weather and operating conditions. During times of widespread outages or emergency situations (such as hurricanes, ice storms, etc.), PSEG Long Island focuses resources on power restoration. In these situations, MyAlerts messages may be limited to certain regions, delayed, or both. In times of weather disasters, power outage text messages and emails may not be deliverable.
-
Power restoration times are only estimates. They are based on the best information we have at the time about the power outage. We generally know how long different types of power outages take to restore, but each power outage may have unique circumstances.
-
Please first check the circuit breaker box at your property to ensure that nothing has tripped to the OFF position. If power is still not restored after checking the breaker, text OUT to PSEGLI (773454) to report the power outage again. There may be additional damage at your location that we were not previously aware of during the original repairs. If you see downed wires, damaged poles, etc., please call us at 1-800-490-0075 to report the damaged equipment.
