FRANKLIN COUNTY - An emergency planned outage is scheduled to occur from 2 to 6 a.m. Wednesday for some Adams Electric customers.

The outage will take place at the Met-Ed's Orrtanna Break Station affecting about 3,400 Adams Electric members in Orrtanna, Fairfield, Carroll Valley, Cashtown and Big Flats area, according to a news release.

Met-Ed hopes to permanently repair a switch that caused an outage in the same areas early Tuesday morning, the release states.

Customers living in those areas should make any necessary arrangements to keep themselves and their families safe, the release states.

With low temperatures expected overnight, customers should take extra caution to stay warm, including prepare any back-up heating systems, make arrangement to stay elsewhere, have extra blankets and warm clothing available, make sure pets have somewhere safe to stay and slightly open faucets to allow a small drip to avoid freezing pipes.
