When PSNH undertakes a power restoration effort following a major storm, the first thing that usually comes to mind for most customers is the relief of seeing the company’s familiar yellow bucket trucks in their neighborhood. But well before the storm even arrives, PSNH Customer Service uses diverse communication methods to make sure customers are fully prepared for likely and perhaps prolonged outages.

With few outages occurring in its service territory during last week’s blizzard, PSNH sent 31 of its line crews, along with support teams and supervisory staff, to assist its Northeast Utilities sister company, NSTAR, in restoring power to tens of thousands of customers in communities on hard-hit Cape Cod. The New Hampshire team was based at NSTAR’s Yarmouth, MA service center, focusing on restoring power to customers in Harwich and Chatham.

The start of fall is a season of heightened awareness for PSNH employees involved in storm restoration. Slightly more than a year after Irene knocked out power to 125,000 customers, and coming up on the anniversary of the bizarre Snowtober when up to 237,000 customers were without power, PSNH departments believe they are more prepared than ever for whatever the elements throw at New Hampshire in the coming months.
