⚠️ Half Your Home Has No Power? Don’t Panic — Here’s What to Do First! ⚡
If you’re experiencing partial power loss in your home, you’re not alone. At JLB Electric, we receive dozens of emergency calls every month from homeowners in Regina, White City, and Emerald Park facing this exact issue. The good news? Not every situation requires an immediate service call — and some can be resolved quickly with a few simple checks.
Here’s a step-by-step guide to follow before calling an electrician, especially during summer storms when panel issues are more common.
✅ Step 1: Locate Your Electrical Panel
Most electrical panels are found in the basement, garage, or utility room. Ensure the area is dry and well-lit before proceeding.
🔌 Step 2: Check Your Breakers
Flip every breaker OFF and then back ON.
Many homeowners don’t realize that a tripped breaker can appear “on” when it’s not fully reset. Make sure to include the main breaker as well — this is a common oversight during partial outages.
🌐 Step 3: Check the SaskPower Outage Map
Before assuming the issue is inside your home, visit the SaskPower Outage Centre:

If your area is listed, you may just need to wait for service restoration.
📞 Step 4: Call the SaskPower Emergency Line
If no outage is reported and your breakers appear fine, contact SaskPower directly at 310-2220. Their emergency line is available 24/7 and can assist with grid-side issues.
