Why Reliable Service Requires Access to Your Property

Why it’s good to see co-op workers on your property?

Wharton County Electric Cooperative employees and contractors work throughout our service territory, in the rights-of-way and easements, and across your private property and driveways. We’re working to ensure reliable power for you and your neighbors, and that means we must cross your property from time to time.

You may see us:

  • Reading meters
  • Making routine repairs
  • Replacing meters
  • Trimming trees and brush
  • Restoring power outages
  • Locating buried utilities for construction and digging projects
  • Working to upgrade poles, wires, transformers and equipment
  • Inspecting lines, power poles, transformer boxes and equipment

All field work, except emergency power restoration, is conducted during normal working hours, 7:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. Monday through Friday. Every effort is made to avoid damage and unnecessary intrusion. If you have concerns about our work, contact us at 979-543-6271. We appreciate your cooperation.
