Con Edison Crews Restored Service to More Than 34,700 Bronx Customers Since the Heat Wave Began

Con Edison crews, working around the clock in sweltering temperatures, have restored service to more than 34,700 customers in the Bronx since the heat wave began.

The heat, humidity and customers’ need to run their air conditioners to stay comfortable place stress on electric delivery equipment.

Con Edison has asked customers to use energy wisely during the heat. Conservation helps customers save money and helps Con Edison keep service reliable. The company asks customers to refrain from using intensive appliances such as washers, dryers, and microwaves during peak hours.

The company asks customers to limit unnecessary use of air conditioning. If you have two air conditioners, use only one and set it to the highest comfortable temperature.

The company also asks customers to refrain from charging their electric vehicles unless necessary.

Customers can report outages and check service restoration status at www.conEd.com/reportoutage, or with our mobile app for iOS or Android devices, or by calling 1-800-75-CONED (1-800-752-6633). When calling, customers should report whether their neighbors also have lost power. Customers who report outages will receive updates with their estimated restoration times as they become available.
