Pennsylvania Power Outage Affects 116,000 Customers

A significant power outage is affecting 116,150 customers across Pennsylvania, representing nearly 3x the 24-hour average outage volume for the state. While no major BPO hubs are directly in Pennsylvania, the scale and proximity to northeastern US operations centers warrant monitoring for potential ripple effects on regional infrastructure and workforce availability. The outage scope suggests a substantial grid disruption rather than localized equipment failure.
