树修剪
There's a tree too close to my power line. 你能修剪一下吗??
Can I disconnect service for safety during tree-trimming?
If there is a tree on your property that is near or contacting PSE service lines (wires that run from a PSE pole and attach to your home or meter pole), PSE will perform a safety disconnection to allow you or your private tree trimmer/arborist to remove or trim branches to reduce the possibility of contact creating an outage. Typically this work is done at no charge.
Please contact one of our representatives at 1-888-321-7779 at least 5 business days before you plan to start the work to check on crew availability and potential charges.

Why does 普吉特海湾能源公司 trim trees?
安全: Falling trees and branches can bring down poles and power lines causing very dangerous situations on the ground.
可靠性: Falling trees and limbs or even limbs that simply come in contact with power lines can cause power outages.
Can I do 树修剪 work myself?
No. It is extremely unsafe for you to trim vegetation growing near power lines – even trees that are on your property.
Only specially trained 树修剪 professionals should do this work.
Please call your 当地的树木栽培家 或填写我们的 触点形式 and we'll send out a certified arborist to investigate at no cost to you.
Do you charge for trimming or removal?
No. We will not charge you to trim or remove any trees or branches that may cause safety hazards.
If you are asked for money, please call your 当地的树木栽培家 或填写我们的 触点形式.
When will tree crews arrive?
Typically within two to four weeks, although a PSE-certified arborist may appear within a few days to assess the situation.
Will I be notified when PSE crews are pruning trees in my neighborhood?
When 树修剪 is necessary, nearby residents will receive a letter from us that includes contact information and the dates the work will be performed.
Will there be interruptions to my electric service while PSE is pruning trees in my area?
No. Routine 树修剪 and tree removal should not impact your electrical service.
Why can't PSE place power lines underground instead of pruning?
Simply burying power lines is not as easy or cost-effective as it may sound, especially when you consider:
• All trees and vegetation in the area must be uprooted and removed in order to bury the underground cable.
• Moisture, corrosion and other stresses make buried cable vulnerable to failures.
• 停电 can be dramatically longer because of the time it takes to locate underground faults, 挖掘并完成维修.
• Underground cables cost many times more than overhead lines.
I live in an area with underground power lines. Does PSE's vegetation management affect me?
Even if 树修剪 isn’t a concern in your neighborhood, nearby overhead lines that supply power to your underground lines must be properly maintained to ensure safety and reliability.
What guidelines should I follow when landscaping my property?
•总是打电话 811 在你挖掘之前. This free service helps you avoid potential injury, fines and the disruption of your electric or natural gas service.
• Do not plant trees or bushes, or place fences or rockeries near PSE's green metal transformer boxes. Our crews need safe and easy access to them in case of outages or routine maintenance.
