Tacoma Power customers: what to do in order
- 1. Check whether it is the grid. Look at Tacoma Power’s outage map or call 253-502-8602. Lines get busy in storms, so call once. (Tacoma Public Utilities — Outages & Safety)
- 2. Tell them what they need. Your name, the affected address, a callback number, when it started, and anything you can see: a tree in a line, a wire down, a loud pop, a broken pole.
- 3. Medical equipment at home. If you rely on life-sustaining equipment, register with Tacoma Power at 253-502-8600 so they can notify you before planned outages.
- 4. Permits come from Tacoma Power, not L&I. In Tacoma Power’s service area (Tacoma, Fircrest, University Place, Fife, parts of Steilacoom and Lakewood, and unincorporated Pierce County), Tacoma Power issues electrical permits and does inspections.
