Snow Removal and Plowing
As ComEd prepares for the winter season, we would like to remind residents of several important considerations regarding ComEd-owned equipment located on your property:
- ComEd transformers and switchgear may require access during winter weather conditions. Snow removal activities may sometimes block or bury this equipment, and snow piled against electrical equipment may cause damage, potentially resulting in power outages.
- To ensure safe and timely access, please maintain a minimum of 10 feet of clear space in front of equipment cabinet doors and at least one foot of clearance on the remaining three sides.
- If ComEd equipment is located along plow routes or within parking areas, please remind snow contractors and staff not to pile snow on or around the equipment.
- In the event of a power outage, please call 1-800-EDISON-1 to initiate the restoration process.
Thank you for your help and support this winter season.
