If you do not see your outage on the map, call our toll-free outage reporting line at 1-844-484-2300 or text OUT to TXEWEB (893932). You must complete all prompts to record your outage.
If you have a Smart Meter, EWEB will be automatically notified when your power is out and you do not need to report your outage.

All information presented on this map is approximate and subject to change. While we do our best to ensure the quality of the information, EWEB makes no guarantee as to its accuracy, completeness or timeliness. The outage locations are generalized to protect customer privacy, and restoration times are estimated only. We can't guarantee that power will be restored to your home or business within the time frame displayed.
High Fire Risk Zone (HFRZ): The orange highlights show areas within EWEB service territory where our electric lines and equipment are sited in terrain with a higher potential for wildfire. EWEB may change the settings on our electric equipment in the HFRZs to make them more sensitive to irregularities and reduce the risk of our equipment being involved in a wildfire. Customers in the HFRZs may experience more frequent outages and longer restoration times when seasonal wildfire safety operational settings are in place. Learn More

Understanding outage status
RED = WE'RE AWARE THAT POWER IS OUT IN THE AREA
An outage report has been received by either a customer manually reporting, or a smart meter automatically reporting. EWEB is aware of an outage, but we haven't started working on restoration yet. We are performing a variety of tasks such as calling in crew resources or evaluating incoming outage reports to isolate the possible cause of the outage. In a major event such as a wind or snow storm, we may be prioritizing multiple outages based on the hierarchy of repair.
What should you do?
- If you have a smart meter, you don't need to report the outage. Your meter communicated directly with EWEB, letting us know the power is out at your specific address.
- If you don't have a smart meter (or you're not sure if you do), please manually report your outage, even if a RED circle appears in your area.
- Get status updates by checking the outage map. If you reported your outage via the toll-free reporting line, you can request a call back letting you know when your power is restored. You can also text 'stat' for a status update if you reported your outage using the texting service. During large or widespread outages, we will post updates on this website as well as on Facebook and Twitter.
GREEN = RESTORATION WORK IN PROGRESS
A repair crew is either en route, currently working on repairs, or is scheduled to work on repairs sometime today. In many cases, an estimated restoration time will now display on the outage map.
What should you do?
- If there has been a storm, wait until it is safe to go outside, and then check your electric service connection point (see above).
- Prepare your home for restoration:
- If you have electric heat, please turn down your thermostats to prevent overloading the distribution system (and causing another outage) when power is restored.
- Make sure your stove or other appliances with heating elements are turned off. This could create a safety hazard if you are not home when power is restored.
- If your electronics aren't protected with a surge protector, you may consider unplugging electrical equipment during an outage.
- Leave an inside light and a porch light switched on, so you and EWEB repair crews will know when power has been restored.

Safety is our top priority
Avoid downed power lines
Never touch a downed power line or anything it may be touching. If you see a downed power line, call us immediately at 1-844-484-2300.
Generator safety
Using a generator when the power goes out is a great option, but safety should be the top priority for both you and utility workers.
