Prepare for an outage

How to prepare for a power outage at home, on your farm, for your business or if you are medically dependent.

Power outages can happen at any time. Whether it’s a planned or unplanned outage, you should be prepared with a No-Power Plan in the event of no power.

Please note, MainPower does not provide generators for planned or unplanned outages. Please speak with your electrician to better understand your generation requirements.
