Indiana: official power outage sources

If your power is out

1. Stay away from downed lines and anything touching them. Call 911.
2. Report it to your own utility. The name and outage phone number are on your electric bill. Do not assume a neighbor has reported it.
3. Check your utility's outage page for the area affected and any restoration estimate. Only your utility can give that estimate.

Regional grid organizations and balancing areas that cover all or part of Indiana: MISO; PJM. They balance supply and demand on the high-voltage system. Their alerts describe the regional system, not an outage on your street. How the pieces fit together
