Life-Sustaining Equipment

Individuals who rely on electricity to operate life-sustaining electronic equipment, such as a respirator or dialysis machine, should pre-register with PSE&G to receive priority attention in the event of an outage.  To request the service, call PSE&G at 1-800-436-PSEG or have your doctor fill out our Life-Sustaining Equipment Certification and then you can fax or mail the form back to PSE&G. In the event of a power interruption, we will supply you with a estimate of the power restoration timeline.

You should also inform your local rescue squads and fire departments of your needs, in case of an emergency.  Even though customers with life-sustaining equipment who have registered with PSE&G will receive priority attention during outages, they should also have emergency back-up equipment on hand, since immediate restoration cannot be guaranteed.
