We had two outages lasting half a day each last week in Saugus. They sent us no advance notification. We also had outages of half a day (or in one case all night) last month. California has really slipped to being a third world country. High crime, corrupt government, fraudulent elections, and a lack of basic services, that’s the state of the State. And so we can’t force SCE to do better because out corrupt government is accepting bribe money from them, and we can’t replace our corrupt government because of election fraud.
think you mean vault fire not volt fire
