This message is a safety announcement for generator users. It advises homeowners using generators to turn off their main breaker to prevent back feeding power to electrical lines. Back feeding poses a serious danger to linemen working to restore power. When power is fed back into the grid, crews must stop their work to locate and turn off the homeowner's breaker, delaying power restoration. The announcement urges generator users to be mindful of safety and to keep their main breakers off to avoid endangering the crews.
