How to send Reiki to power lines correctly?

For years now I have always sent Reiki to my power lines and the town I live in, and two grids. I just had a snowstorm and it worked at keeping mine on, but last night when I sent reiki to the whole state of NC, it didn't work at all and their are thousands of power outages. im so furious that reiki doesn't work on something unless I know where the lines are, or the grids, because I don't get it. If someone can help me understand what to do correctly, maybe I can get it right. I usually speak it all and mostly use the power symbol. I say Hon Sha Zae Sho Nen but sometimes I don't because it doesn't always feel right. last night I used it, didn't help.
Their are times even to my own lines, It will go out, and ill start chanting cho ku rei and it flicks on and off over and over several times and then goes out. its a hit or miss. Any help is appreciated.
