A small number of customers in Sacramento County, California, are without electricity today, September 29, 2026, as several separate power-outage incidents are being tracked across the county.
The latest available outage data shows 39 customers without power in Sacramento County across seven active incidents. The figure represents customers affected by current outages rather than a single countywide blackout.
Sacramento County Power Outage Update
The current outage picture remains relatively limited compared with larger utility disruptions, but individual outages can still affect homes and businesses depending on their location.
The latest statewide outage tracker lists Sacramento County with 39 customers without power and seven active incidents. Conditions can change as utility crews investigate individual outages and restore service.
California’s official power-outage data is compiled from utility public outage maps and is designed to provide regularly updated information about active incidents, affected customers, causes and estimated restoration times when those details are available.
Is Sacramento Experiencing a Major Power Outage?
The available data does not indicate a major countywide blackout in Sacramento at the time of this report.
Instead, the 39 affected customers are spread across multiple reported incidents. That distinction is important because a relatively small number of customers can lose service in separate localized outages without the entire city or county being affected.
The number of customers without power can also change quickly as additional outages are reported or existing incidents are resolved.
What Is Causing the Sacramento Outages?
A specific cause for the current Sacramento County outages could not be established from the latest publicly accessible information reviewed.
Utility outage records can identify causes such as equipment problems, weather-related damage, planned work or other issues once they have been determined. California’s outage database includes fields for both the cause of an outage and its estimated restoration time.
At the time of publication, no verified information was available to attribute all 39 affected customers to one specific event.

Power Outage Conditions Can Change Quickly
Outage numbers are dynamic. Customers can regain service as crews complete repairs, while new equipment failures or other incidents can increase the number of affected customers.
For that reason, the 39-customer figure should be viewed as a snapshot of the outage situation rather than a fixed total for the entire day.
Residents who are experiencing an outage that does not appear in publicly available information should report it directly to their electricity provider.
What Sacramento Residents Should Do During an Outage
People currently without electricity should take normal outage precautions while waiting for service to return.
Residents should:
- Keep refrigerators and freezers closed as much as possible.
- Unplug sensitive electronics if there is a risk of power fluctuations.
- Stay away from any fallen or damaged power lines.
- Report downed lines or other dangerous electrical conditions to the appropriate utility or emergency service.
- Check official utility outage information for restoration updates.
Anyone who sees a fallen power line should treat it as energized and avoid approaching it.
