Need to do some outdoor work, but the power line is in the way?

If you need to do some type of outdoor work, but a power line is in the way, STEMC can assist you by disconnecting the line while you have the work done. Then STEMC will reconnect your service. This work can be done without an electrical permit as long as the work makes no modifications or repairs to the electrical wiring or associated system while disconnected.
