Storm electrical damage can affect service equipment, outdoor circuits and equipment inside a building. Guardian reviews property-side assessment and corrective electrical work after safe access is established. Downed utility lines, flooding and structural damage need the appropriate emergency or utility response before an ordinary repair visit can begin.

Treat fallen wires, damaged service equipment and electrical equipment near standing water as hazards. Stay away and contact the responsible utility or emergency services. Do not attempt to move a line, remove a tree from it or operate wet equipment. A photograph is useful only when it can be taken safely without approaching the hazard.
Tell Guardian whether the concern involves the meter area, mast, outdoor outlets, tripping circuits or equipment that no longer works. Wind, impact and water may require different assessment paths. The fact that some lights still work does not establish that damaged equipment can remain in use. Record the time of the incident and known utility instructions.
A damaged mast, meter enclosure, feeder or outdoor fixture may involve different ownership and approval boundaries. Review meter and service-entrance work and identify any utility work or inspection needed before reconnection. Guardian does not promise to repair utility-owned distribution lines or control the utility’s restoration schedule.
Floodwater or firefighting water can change the condition of electrical equipment even after surfaces appear dry. Manufacturer guidance and a qualified assessment are needed before reuse decisions. CDC flood-return guidance warns against using wet electrical devices. Separate the electrical repair from building drying, structural work and insurance decisions.
