What short-outage City of Wadsworth - (OH) filings show
City of Wadsworth - (OH) is a municipally-owned utility operating in Ohio under EIA identifier 19951. It reports service to approximately 13,820 customer accounts and generated about $0.03 billion in annual electric revenue, with a service footprint spanning 3 ZIP codes. Municipal ownership means a local board or city council typically oversees this utility, and it is exempt from federal income tax.
In 2023, the average City of Wadsworth - (OH) customer experienced 55.0 minutes of power interruptions, a metric called SAIDI (System Average Interruption Duration Index). That places this utility well below the 120–180 minute national benchmark, signaling strong grid hardening and fast restoration practices. Over the same period, SAIFI (outage events per customer) was 0.35, putting the typical customer at roughly 0 distinct interruptions that year. Strip out major event days (hurricanes, ice storms) and SAIDI falls to 55.0 minutes; the difference from the headline 55.0 shows how much of the outage total came from weather rather than everyday grid issues.
With 4 consecutive years of EIA data (2020–2023), City of Wadsworth - (OH)'s reliability record can be judged on trend rather than one isolated year. Over that span, SAIDI rose from 25.3 to 55.0 minutes, possibly reflecting tougher weather years or grid upgrades that have not caught up yet.
Based on this utility's own EIA Form 861 reliability record -- baseline (major-event- excluded) outage duration, total outage duration, and outage frequency -- each benchmarked against every reporting utility nationwide. Not a measure of electricity rates or customer service, which this portal does not track.
