Frequently Asked Questions
Which electric utility serves Dallas, OR?
Pacific Power (PacifiCorp) serves the City of Dallas and most of Polk County. For emergency work we'll coordinate any required disconnect/reconnect with the serving utility.
What counts as an electrical emergency in Dallas?
Anything with smoke, fire, burning smell, sparking, water in a panel/outlet, or a downed service entrance is an emergency — turn the main off if you safely can and call us. Partial power loss in part of the house is urgent but usually not life-safety.
Do you offer same-day emergency service in Dallas?
Yes, during business hours we dispatch same-day to Dallas when a tech is available. After-hours availability is limited — call and we'll tell you honestly.
Who do I call first — the utility or an electrician?
If the service drop is down, a meter is damaged, or the utility's equipment is involved, call PGE / Pacific Power / Salem Electric first — they restore the service side. We handle everything from the meter into the house.
Will you coordinate with the utility?
Yes. For service-entrance repairs we pull the permit, do the work, and coordinate disconnect/reconnect with the serving utility.
