What to Do in a Fire Emergency
The threat of wildfires is something we all live with in Southern California. But there are ways to keep your family safe and prepare your home in case a fire does occur.
In Case of Emergency
If you have been instructed to leave your house or building during a fire emergency, we recommend that you do NOT turn off your gas or electricity unless you smell or hear a natural gas leak.
Public safety is always our main concern, and power will be restored to homes and businesses as soon safely possible. Check our real time outage map, for outage restoration times, or you may call 800-411-7343. In some cases, an inspection needs to be completed before we can turn your gas or electricity back on.

Being prepared for an emergency is an ongoing effort and is one that SDG&E takes very seriously. For us, preparation is a key component of delivering safe and reliable energy. That is why we have created a Community Fire Safety Program within SDG&E that also stretches to the community as a whole.
