Restoration Times Now Available for Louisiana Customers Following Zeta

10/30/2020

Entergy’s Louisiana utilities have set estimated restoration times for most customers affected by Hurricane Zeta. A list of those times broken down by parish are below.

As of 9 p.m. Friday, crews have successfully restored power to more than 245,000 customers who lost service following Zeta, which at the peak caused more than 480,000 outages for customers in Louisiana.

A storm team of approximately 5,700 from 13 states is on the ground and working to safely to restore all customers. With the assessment process nearing completion, our scouts have found damage to approximately 2,489 poles, 1,579 spans of wire and 479 transformers.

As we continue to restore power, we want to make sure customers can safely accept it when it becomes available. We ask that customers check for damaged electrical equipment that is attached to their home or business and to contact an electrician to make any needed repairs. For information on your home’s electrical equipment, visit our Entergy Storm Center. If damage has been repaired by a qualified electrician, call 1-800-ENTERGY to generate a service-reconnection work order.

Stay Safe

Customers are reminded that there is no way to know if a downed line or other electrical equipment is energized or not, so if you see one, keep your distance and call 1-800-9OUTAGE (800-968-8243).

Those choosing to use portable electric generators should do so in accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions. Customers must never connect a generator directly to a building’s wiring without a licensed electrician disconnecting the house wiring from Entergy’s service. Otherwise, it can create a safety hazard for the customer or our linemen working to restore power. And it may damage the generator or the house wiring.

Restoration workers who discover a generator attached directly to Entergy’s system will work with the customer to disconnect the generator. As a last resort, the restoration worker will disconnect the customer’s service connection to Entergy, which may take an extended time to reconnect due to the extensive restoration effort underway. A set of generator safety tips can be found at entergynewsroom.com/storm-center/safety/.

Entergy urges customers to keep streets open for local emergency vehicles and workers. Additionally, crews will continue to practice social distancing and Entergy asks that customers do the same. For the safety of crews and other first responders, please stay away from work zones. Customers needing assistance should call 1-800-ENTERGY.
