Hello TOTV Members, Casandra with Pike's Electric here.
Hope you all are doing well and getting prepared for the uncertain conditions that we may feel from Hurricane Helene starting tomorrow.
Our office/field operations are planning to shut down at 12pm tomorrow 9/26/24 and return on Friday to normal operation 9/27/24 (dependent on damage/weather conditions, subject to change).
We are here for you for any electrical needs you may have post-storm.
A few pointers to keep in mind: When it comes to heavy rain/flooding/saturation that exterior outlets/exterior low voltage lighting, fountains, or any decor that is plugged in, etc. can cause GFCI circuits/GFCI outlets to remain tripped and will not reset until they have had time to dry out. It is suggested to unplug these items if possible (which will be the best way to prevent surge damage) and secure anything you can indoors due to heavy rains and winds. Please note: Give these circuits time to dry out as the weather passes, then attempt to reset GFCIs once we have had dry weather.
Also - Your sensitive electronics (TVs and computers) my best advice is to UNPLUG these items prior to the weather starting to amp up. This is the best way to prevent surge damage to these items due to surges/nearby lightning, etc.
Any tripped breakers should be turned OFF, then back ON if tripped, when power is restored. If you have trouble with this I can help you via phone when our office is reopened.
I will be back in the office to help you Friday (if nothing changes). Here for you as always
We greatly appreciate your support and business. Be safe!
- Casandra
