Security and Response Services
Basin Electric offers a range of alarm monitoring and dispatch services for members and their residential and commercial customers.

Dispatchers communicate with linemen via push-to-talk radios and cell phones, tracking linemen from the time they leave the shop until the outage has been restored, and they have returned to the co-op.
