First, make sure if it is out in your entire house or apartment. You could have blown a fuse (in
older homes) or tripped a breaker. Replace the fuse or switch the breaker back on. If it re-trips, that circuit might be overloaded.
Second, look outside. If neighbors' lights and street lights are on, the electrical outage is only affecting you.
Third, you'll need to call the electric company. Most companies have automatic machines that will tell you if there is a reported outage in your area. If it is close to 6 p.m. or 11 p.m., the local news will often report on area outages. Note: You can still report your outage, so the company knows you are affected too.
