2 Westbard-area power outages in 2 days as Pepco works on River Road

Some residents of the Westbard area experienced two short power outages on Wednesday and Thursday, as Pepco crews continue work on a Westbard redevelopment-related utility project on River Road. A very brief outage occurred Wednesday night, and a twenty-minute outage again at 10:20 AM on Thursday morning. There was no bad weather or wind in the area during either outage.

It is not clear if the outages were caused by an equipment failure, or related to the Westbard redevelopment work. What is clear, is that this type of outage can severely damage household appliances.

    First I've read that short power outages can severely damage household appliances. Now, there's that to worry about too.
