Yet another Pepco brownout in Westbard area of Bethesda


Some Westbard-area residents briefly lost power once again, in the latest Pepco brownout in that area of Bethesda since 2017. Residents reported a power loss of about 7 seconds early Thursday evening, October 19, 2023 at 6:21 PM. The last incident was a full power outage October 2, 2023 at 1:50 AM, only 17 days earlier. 

There was no inclement weather during either incident. If you were among the customers affected, make sure to make a note of the brownout in your records. Should your appliances or devices that were plugged in fail, Pepco is responsible for the damage.

I appreciate that one person keeps you up to date every time their power flickers. Are they sure they don't need to just upgrade their own panel or wiring?

It's many more than one customer.

Because 240's wall sockets still work, the grid is fine...

Pretty darn assumptive.
