公共安全停电
顾客的安全是我们的首要任务. 在恶劣的天气条件下, a Public Safety Power Shutoff (PSPS) may be used to help prevent potential wildfires. 这永远是最后的手段，也是为了帮助保护我们所服务的社区. 要注册接收有关中断的通知， click here.
安全第一
随着加州气候条件的变化, the traditional idea of a fire “season” has evolved into a year-long battle against stronger, 更快的野火. SDG&E has spent more than a decade to build out a wildfire safety program that includes:
- 防火加固基础设施
- Building a fire science and meteorology department to better forecast and prepare for wildfires
- 运用创新科技，例如气象站, 网络摄像头, 无人机和火灾预测模型来观察潜在的威胁
即使我们投入了大量资金来降低野火的风险, there are times where we may have to shut off the power to our electric circuits to ensure that flying debris doesn't make contact with power lines and cause an ignition.

公共安全断电程序
提前7-10天
当预测显示可能出现危险情况时，可持续发展目标&监控火灾风险和潜在影响.
提前3-6天
SDG&E对天气预报和野火可能性进行相应的修正
提前2天
SDG&E will start notifying customers who could be affected by a possible Public Safety Power Shutoff, 包括关键设施和医疗基线客户, 以及国家, 县、市政府机构.
提前一天
SDG&E继续监测天气状况, communicate with affected communities and coordinate with first responders and public safety agencies.
停电日
SDG&E通知受影响社区, 还有政府和公共安全机构, 电力已经被切断了.
电力恢复
一旦天气条件安全，可持续发展目标&E将开始恢复电力. Field crews and aerial resources will inspect overhead power lines to make sure there are no damages from high winds and that they are safe to operate.
PSPS恢复流程
我们的视频解释了可持续发展目标&E's process to safely and quickly restore power to communities affected by a Public Safety Power Shutoff.
社区资源中心
作为我们在公共安全停电期间为客户提供支持计划的一部分, 我们在特定的社区建立了社区资源中心. These resource centers will open up so residents affected by power shutoffs will have a place to go for information. 此外，他们还可以获得水、零食、冰和手机充电.
关键设施
>We know how much our customers rely on electric service, 尤其是那些提供对公共安全至关重要的服务的设施, 比如医院, 警察局和消防局, 通信服务, 供水商. Recognizing that these customers require additional assistance and advance planning to ensure resiliency, SDG&E在中断之前和中断期间为他们提供高级通信.
我们非常认真地对待我们运营电网的责任. 如果情况威胁到我们安全运行系统的能力, 我们将关闭电源，保护公共安全. 在决定切断电源之前，我们考虑了很多因素. 这些因素包括, 但不限于:紧急情况下, 风速测量, 植被水分, 温度, humidity, 可持续发展目标的实地观测&来自消防部门的人员和信息.
We've developed a way to reduce the number of customers impacted when conditions may lead to a power shutoff in high-fire threat areas. Additional weather stations and electrical devices improve our ability to divide an electric circuit into smaller sections. We can be more precise when shutting off power so the number of customers impacted by a power shutoff is smaller.
Power will remain shut off as long as the threat to our system and public safety continues —that is, as long as winds are creating a safety issue near and around our electric infrastructure. 当风减弱一段时间后, our crews will then patrol the lines to check for system damage from wind-blown debris or any other problems before the power is turned on. 很难预测一次巡逻要花多长时间, 因为它取决于每根电源线的长度, 地形和是否需要空中巡逻. 有些线路位于农村山区，需要直升机巡逻. In those cases, wind speeds need to be below 35 mph for the helicopter to fly safely. 此外，出于安全考虑，我们的工作人员不能在夜间巡逻.
It’s important to remember that improved weather conditions are not the only factor that determines whether a line is safe to re-energize. 为客户恢复供电可能是一个漫长的过程. First, 我们需要在一段持续的时间内记录风速的下降, 然后为可持续发展目标留出4-8小时的日光&E外勤人员在线路上巡逻. 当巡逻, 工作人员正在寻找电线掉落等安全隐患, 被绳子缠住的碎片或树枝, 硬件损坏或通信线路相关问题. 电源线或电线杆是否有损坏, 在恢复供电之前，必须先进行维修.
In the case of fire or other adverse weather conditions, this process can take days. You may see our trucks in your neighborhood as you continue to experience an outage. 他们收集的信息有助于我们计划工作.
During a power shutoff, addressing hazardous situations like downed lines is a priority. 然后，我们会尽快恢复尽可能多的客户. We also prioritize repairs to restore service for critical needs 比如医院, 抽水站、警察和消防部门.
我们正在努力为所有人恢复供电, 你可能会看到附近的灯还亮着, 你的位置还不知道. 一个社区的不同部分可能在不同的电路上, 并不是所有的电路都在同一时间恢复.
SDG&E recommends investing in a landline to ensure a stable communication channel, as well as for SDG&E和急救人员在紧急情况下联系你. Additional solutions include purchasing a small radio with a crank or solar power to stay informed with the latest news. Many retail outlets offer low cost battery supply packs that should be kept charged and can provide backup charging power to your cell phone and other small electronics. 移动设备也可以在车内用低成本的适配器充电. It is always advised to know where your local law enforcement and fire stations are located; they should have the latest information.
如果你在高火力威胁区域, 可能有社区资源中心可以为小型设备充电, 或者你可以考虑在家里准备一台发电机.
Yes. SDG&E has the authority to turn off the power in emergency situations when necessary to protect public safety.

It’s important to remember that power lines from a well-maintained and well-designed power grid can still ignite a catastrophic wildfire. 在过去几年中，可持续发展目标&E has made major improvements to its electric grid when it comes to wildfire preparedness. But, 当存在危险的火灾条件时, it's hard to prevent a tarp or a palm frond from whipping through 80 mph wind gusts directly into power lines, 点火. 这些都说明了可持续发展目标所需要的条件&我们必须计划和准备保护我们客户的安全. 在有风的情况下没有电力通过输电线, 一个点火源被移除, 保护我们的社区免受另一场灾难性野火的影响.
