Security Lighting
Security Lighting - Light up your nights with a security light. It's a cost-effective way to bring peace of mind and security to your home and property. If an additional CGEMC pole is not required, it will cost you as little as $8.00 a month.
What are the benefits?
- Convenience-Enjoy extended outdoor hours. Photo-electrically controlled lights automatically turn on at dusk and off at dawn.
- Safety-Accidents do happen, but you can reduce the risk by having well-lighted sidewalks, driveways, foot paths and grounds.
- Security-Lighting dark areas discourages suspicious or criminal activity and brings you peace of mind.
Our Outdoor Lighting Service is an inexpensive way to provide your home or business added security, safety and convenience. A low monthly rate includes automatic dusk to dawn lighting and maintenance. Usually there is no installation fee. If a pole or transformer must be added where no existing pole is located in the area the light is needed, an additional cost will be charged for these materials. The monthly fee for Outdoor Lighting Service is added to the electric bill. Call the office for outdoor lighting rates. Some residents in our service area are also eligible for subdivision street lighting through local government services. Contact our representatives or your local government agency to see if street lighting is available in your subdivision/area.

How Does It Work?
Outdoor lighting is an inexpensive way to give you convenience, safety and security. A flat monthly rate covers energy and includes the automatically controlled lamp and fixture. The lights can be installed on an existing pole or CGEMC can provide a wooden or metal pole at a slight additional charge. The lights are available in wattages ranging from 100 to 1000 watts. Depending on your requirements, wiring can be either overhead or underground. After installation, outdoor lighting remains the property of CGEMC and will be maintained by CGEMC.
