OG&E updates System Watch, tool tracks outages

The electric utility’s revamped System Watch features more details about size and locations of disruptions, additional ways to search for specific outages

OKLAHOMA CITY — (Jan. 11, 2022) — Today OG&E launched a redesigned version of System Watch, the tool on OG&E’s website providing customers with the latest information about any outages within OG&E’s service area. System Watch is used by customers to report and track service disruptions in real time. No action is required to access — simply visit oge.com/outages.

The updated System Watch includes:

  • More detail about the size and location of power interruptions
  • More specificity about single-customer outages
  • Easier navigation and an updated design
  • More mobile-friendly accessibility
  • View of ongoing power restoration by county or zip code

The new updates allow customers to access clearer, more detailed and up-to-date information about their electricity. The tool allows for quick, simple options to report an outage, get information on storm preparedness and safety, or manage MyOGEalerts. Customers can easily hide or un-hide menus and keys to view more of the map, switch between road map or terrain views or zoom in. The map also includes a live radar overlay to show active precipitation or severe weather. Viewers can search by address or city name, and bookmark a home, workplace or other favorite location.

The redesigned System Watch platform features a more responsive, mobile-friendly design. From a mobile device or desktop, customers can more easily report an outage, get information on storm preparedness and safety, or sign up for or manage MyOGEalerts.
