Outage Center

Power outages can occur for a variety of reasons including, but not limited to, emergency repairs for damaged equipment, routine maintenance for reliability, expanding the grid for future growth, and preventing wildfires in prone conditions. No matter the outage reason, it is SDG&E’s goal to restore power as quickly and as safely as possible.
