Outages

In case of an outage or power failure, please do the following:

  1. Check the circuit breakers--the switches on your yard pole.  Push them to the "OFF" position and then to the "ON" position to be sure that they are not the source of trouble.
  2. Check for power in two buildings or be sure that your fuses are not blown.
  3. Check to see if your neighbor has power.  This helps us locate the trouble.
  4. As soon as you have determined the trouble is not yours, call the Cooperative office in Linton---LOCAL NUMBERS call 254-4666 - LONG DISTANCE call toll free 1.800.472.2673.

Please be able to give the following information:

  1. Account number and the number on your yard pole. 
  2. Do you know what caused the outage or where the trouble is?
  3. Roads--if a special road is necessary to get to your farm, as in the winter, we would like to know where it is and how to get to your farm.
  4. Time of outage--when did you discover that you didn't have power?
