EMERGENCY REQUEST [I & M logo]
Immediate Reduction of Energy Use Needed
Extremely cold temperatures across the region have created extraordinary demands on the power system. We are asking businesses and the public to help by immediately reducing electricity use as much as possible without sacrificing safety.
I&M is making this emergency request in coordination with PJM the regional power grid operator. We are asking that customers take these actions until 10 a.m. Sunday, Dec. 25, to help ensure adequate power supplies.
Please reduce your electricity use by:
*Setting your thermostat lower than usual, if health allows. *Postponing use of major electric appliances such as stoves, dishwashers and clothes dryers. *Turning off non-essential electric lights, equipment and appliances.
Minor adjustments to thermostats and other measures can make a significant difference. The combined actions of customers can reduce overall demand for electricity and ease the emergency situation. Customers should use electricity needed for personal safety and to protect against property damage.
A couple of weeks ago when my old Cummins/Onan 4500 watt gas generator quit working (engine ran fine, but no electrical output), and I wasn't 100% sure that a new voltage regulator module would fix it, I asked my son-in-law to order me a new 6500 watt Ryobi. (He knows a guy who works there in Anderson and gets good pricing.) The new voltage regulator did the trick -- as expected, because rotor, stator, and slip rings and brushes all measured good -- so I forgot about the new one.
Then yesterday my son-in-law just up and GAVE me the brand new one for Christmas. Put the wheels and feet on today, added oil and gas, and it runs great.
Might sell the old one; it runs great. But it looks like an old Hoosier Hick that got hit by a freight train, so I don't know how much I could get for it.
StraitWoman's happy; I sold an almost-new-in-box extra unneeded heater (.40) and gave her the proceeds of the sale for Christmas.
Wife and kids gave me enough good chocolate to last until Gen. Robert E. Lee's birthday.
I hope you and all the good 4um folks are staying warm.
