Report a Downed Power Line

Electricity is dangerous. Always treat power lines as if they are live or energized, and never touch or approach a downed power line.

What should I do if I see a downed or damaged electrical line?

  • Never touch or even approach a downed power line – it can cause serious injury or even death.
  • Whether overhead or on the ground, consider all power lines energized and dangerous.
  • Don’t touch anyone or anything in contact with a downed power line, including debris, trees, cars, ladders, and people.
  • Don't try to use tools such as a branch or stick to move the line.
  • Call 9-1-1 right away.
  • If you wish to report a downed wire, please only tell us about what you can see from a safe distance.
