Con Ed turns the last of the lights on

The bemoaned utility company restored power for the last group of Westchester residents this morning, two weeks after Sandy ravaged the tri-state area.

However, Con Ed’s work isn’t technically done because 16,300 customers in Brooklyn, Queens and Staten Island are suffering just like Long Island Power Authority customers who need to have their homes inspected, tested and certified by an electrician before the power can be turned back on.

And just like LIPA’s customers, Con Ed suggests that customers go online in order to request a power reactivation once they’ve been certified.

Con Ed says that they’ve replaced 60 miles of electric cable and used more than a year’s worth of materials during their repair efforts over the past two weeks.
