<p class="wp-block-paragraph">If any part of the customer owned meter loop/point of attachment is damaged, it must be repaired by a licensed electrician before NLRED can safely reconnect service. This will include the weatherhead, service wire after point of attachment, meter can, and breaker box (see picture below).</p>

<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Due to the circumstances with the weather and to speed up restoration efforts, we are offering our Statement of compliance form. This allows for a customer’s electrician to perform emergency work on the customer portion of the meter loop. Both the customer and electrician must sign the form and a permit must be obtained from either the North Little Rock or Sherwood Planning Department on the next available business day.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph"><strong>Update: Please request permits &amp; inspections from Planning during normal business hours.</strong></p>

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Welcome to Outage Texting</h2>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">At North Little Rock Electric, we are always trying to improve the customer experience. We are excited to roll out Outage Texting to our customers on March 5<sup>th</sup>. Outage Texting will open a new way to stay in the loop during a service outage.</p>



<h3 class="wp-block-heading">How do I get started?</h3>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Outage Texting is a free service provided to all customers (Message and Data Rates May Apply). You may have noticed recently that we have been pushing for our customers to update their phone numbers tied to their accounts. We will automatically enroll all North Little Rock Electric Customers into our Outage Texting service before we launch. To ensure you get these updates, it is important to keep your phone number tied to your account as up-to-date as possible.</p>



<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Opting In/Out</h3>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">To opt out of NLR Electric Outage Texting, please text STOP or QUIT to 501-975-8888.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">If you decide down the road to rejoin Outage Texting, just text NLRED to 501-975-8888.</p>



<h3 class="wp-block-heading">How Does It Work?</h3>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">When an outage occurs, your meter will stop reporting information to North Little Rock Electric. An automated text will be sent to our customers minutes after the outage, making them aware that we are aware and preparing to act.<strong> </strong>Customers will be able to get the latest information on the outage by replying STATUS. Shortly after your power is restored, you will receive a message indicating that the outage has been resolved. <strong>You may not receive a text instantly, as we verify the outage/restore information is correct before we pass it along.</strong></p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">There may be instances where we are unable to automatically detect the outage. In this situation, you can quickly report the outage to our system by texting OUT.</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Update Your Account Number</h2>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">If you still need to update your phone number, please use the link below!</p>
