CONNECTING A GENERATOR

We understand that sometimes members may need to use a portable generator to keep power to their house during an outage.

If the proper steps aren't taken to ensure a generator is connected correctly, it could become hazardous and even deadly for our line crews and members. Members interested in having a standby generator installed at their property need to follow the necessary steps to connect to Medina EC's distribution system for the safety of themselves and our crews.

OUTAGE RESTORATION PROCESS

When there's an outage, we know you want to know why and when your lights will be back on. Our crews follow a series of steps to get power restored as quickly as safely possibly. First they restore power to the largest number of members then work on smaller groups of outages.
