Due to the volume of calls during an outage, it may be difficult to reach us by phone. Rest assured, when the power is out we will work to restore power as quickly and safely as possible. Information will be posted here as soon as it is available.
Salem Electric's goal is to provide members with reliable service, and we take that task seriously.
Visit our Power Restoration page for information on what to do during an outage.
Salem Electric is not in a high-risk area for wildfires, but because transmission lines that supply electricity to Salem Electric cross areas that are high-risk, there is potential for the Bonneville Power Administration (BPA) to impliment a Public Safety Power Shutoff (PSPS) when hazardous weather conditions threaten thier ability to safely deliver power. Wildfires can start suddenly and grow quickly, so it is important to be prepared and have a plan. Learn more about a PSPS and what you can do to get ready for an outage.
Sometimes we need your help to know when streetlights are out, or not working properly. If a streetlight is out or malfunctioning in your neighborhood, please report it so that it can be repaired.
Tree trimming is critical to Salem Electric's ability to deliver safe and reliable electric service.
Trees that are unstable, diseased, dead, or leaning toward our lines can be dangerous and can cause a power outage. Visit Power Friendly Trees and City of Salem Acceptable Street Trees to learn about trees that can be planted near power lines.
If you have a tree or large branch on your property that is close to the high-voltage primary electric distribution power lines, please let us know by filling out a tree trimming request or by calling us at 503-362-3601.
