Older homes may have original or patched wiring and small services, while mid-century ranches often have full panels. Storm damage to service masts and meters is a frequent reason homeowners need an electrician.

Weather, seasons and the utility

Oklahoma City sits in the heart of tornado country, and spring brings severe storms with large hail, high winds and lightning. Winters bring ice storms, including the October 2020 storm that left hundreds of thousands of customers in the metro without power, some for more than a week, as ice-laden trees fell on lines. Summers are hot. OG&E serves most of Oklahoma City and handles meters, service drops and reconnection. When a storm damages the service mast or meter base attached to a home, an electrician usually has to repair it before OG&E can restore power.
