From delivering reliable electricity to investing in affordable clean energy and supporting our customers and communities, we work around the clock to help make every day brighter. And it’s about more than delivering power. Every day we offer customers many ways to save. That includes rate plan options to fit your lifestyle, rebates on smart thermostats and bill assistance programs like the Energy Support program. You also have options that save you time and make managing your bill easier like Budget Billing, AutoPay, Preferred Due Date and more.

Be Safe Wherever you Go

Electrical safety isn’t limited to your home or office. So whether you’re taking your dog for a walk or out running routine errands, make sure you’re careful around energy if something looks unsafe.

Energy Hazards


 
Energy always seeks all paths to ground itself. It will use any conductor - metal objects, wet wood, water or your body. If you touch an energized bare wire or faulty appliance while you are grounded, energy will instantly pass through you to the ground causing a harmful, possibly fatal shock.   

The amount of energy used by one 7.5 watt Christmas tree bulb can kill you if it passes through your chest. Even if not fatal, electrical shock can easily cause serious burns, falls, cuts or internal bleeding.

Downed Power Lines


 
If your vehicle comes to rest touching a downed power line, stay inside and remain calm. Call 911 and then call APS. Watch this video so you know what to do if it ever happens to you.

Call 911 if you see a downed power line or exposed electrical equipment. And keep yourself safe by staying at least 100 feet away.

Treat all wires with caution, regardless of size. Always assume any wire is energized.

Substations


 
Never enter an electric substation. If you see suspicious activity inside or near one, call 911 immediately. Substations and transformers contain energized parts that are very dangerous to touch.

Storms


 
If a storm hits and you see damage to an area that has power lines in the vicinity, stay away from the area and call 911. The area may still be energized.

Call Before You Dig

Call eight-one-one before any digging to get the location of
underground wires marked to prevent injury or loss of vital services.
We are proud to partner with Arizona 811 to promote safe digging.

Appliances

Energy and water don’t mix. Ever. Keep appliances, even those that are turned off but plugged in, away from bathtubs, sinks, puddles and wet hands.

Electric Cords

Do not yank electric cords out of an outlet by their cord. Use the plug head instead.

Rugs and Furniture

Do not run electrical cords under rugs or furniture. They can be damaged or overheat, and cause a fire.

Wall Outlets

Put safety covers on all wall outlets.

GFCI

Put a ground fault circuit interrupter between your electric power source and your electric product. In a mishap, a GFCI can cut off power in less than a second.

Be Prepared

Be prepared in the event of a power outage. Watch this video to learn what you should include in your emergency outage kit.
tree trimming

Time to trim trees? Remember to check for overhead power lines running through branches.

  • Only specially trained line clearing professionals should prune vegetation growing near overhead power lines.
  • Call us if you notice a tree too close to our power lines. We’ll send a forestry representative to assess the situation within 10 business days. We prune or remove trees, free of charge, that pose a risk to the high-voltage electrical distribution and transmission lines.
  • If tree branches do become tangled in the power line connecting to your house, call us with a 24-hour advanced notice and we can disconnect the power to those lines while your hired professional prunes the tree.
