[quote=Anonymous]There are a bunch of factors that go into prioritization of power. Generally power companies prioritize fixes that will get the most people back and operational...but even within that they prioritize public safety places like hospitals and nursing homes. As a super generalization, the power lines follow roads and busy roads tend to have power connections that when down will impact more people, so are likely to get fixed faster. A power line down on a main street when that power line feeds several smaller power lines that go down multiple streets will get fixed well before the power line that is down at the end of a dead end street and only impacting three houses.
