What To Do When Disaster Strikes! Power Outage
What To Do When Disaster Strikes! Power Outage
Power cuts can be due to rolling blackouts, extreme weather conditions, or accompany other disasters such as earthquakes.
If there is no power in your neighborhood:
- Turn off all appliances, computers, and lights - except one that will indicate when power has been restored.
- Keep the refrigerator closed; this will help to keep food cold longer.
- Be very careful of fire hazards caused by candles and other flammable light sources. Never leave an open flame unattended.
- When power is restored, walk around your home or workplace to ensure appliances are switched off
- If a traffic signal is not working, treat it as a stop sign
