A planned power outage will be held to consolidate substations in Goodwell. In the past, Tri-County Electric members in Goodwell and the surrounding area were served by two substations.

Earlier this year, the cooperative moved members on the Jordan substation to the newer substation near the OPSU campus.

The coop now plans to complete their initial consolidation to the new substation by moving members in Goodwell on the old substation to the new one.

This consolidation will provide the customers with better stability and quality of electric services to Goodwell and the areas surrounding.

A brief outage is being planned for Thursday, June 4 where approximately 312 members located in Goodwell will be without power from 10 a.m. to 11 a.m. while the transfer is taking place.

The members being affected should expect notification of the power outage by mail.

If anyone has any question pertaining to the hour-long power outage or the transferring of the two substations to one substation, please call Tri-County at 1-800-522-3315.
