What should I do if my power is flickering?

If you experience flickering power, it is important to first assess the situation carefully. Flickering can occur due to several reasons, such as fluctuations in the electrical system, heavy equipment drawing power, or even weather-related events. One of the initial steps is to check if the flickering is limited to a specific area or if it affects the entire home. If it is localized, it might be related to a loose connection or faulty wiring within that circuit. It can be helpful to turn off unnecessary appliances to see if the situation improves. However, if the flickering is widespread, it could indicate a more serious issue with the electrical supply from ComEd. In such cases, it is advisable to keep track of when the flickering occurs, as that information can assist in identifying the root cause. For safety reasons, if the problem persists, it may be necessary to consult a licensed electrician for further investigation. Additionally, for updated information or to report issues, visiting ComEd’s official website may provide contact details and more resources related to power supply concerns.
