BGE's electrical equipment requires periodic maintenance in order to provide you with reliable electric service. To perform this maintenance we must often turn the power off so that our crews can work safely.

When such an outage is scheduled in your area, we will always give you as much notice as possible. We will inform you by mail when your service is scheduled to be affected and include the date, time and length of the outage.

When checking the status of an outage, please have on hand the Planned Outage Job Number listed on the notice you received.

On occasion, it is necessary to cancel a scheduled outage due to severe weather or other operating conditions. To determine if your outage has been cancelled, please refer to the list below. Some outages may be cancelled shortly before the scheduled time, so check this page often for the most current information available. Please note that only cancelled outages are listed on this page.

These updates are also available by calling 410-597-6660.
