Can other servers/workstations authenticate to this PDC? Should be success events in it's logs. If so the PDC is working fine and the issue is the member server, or its connection. My bet is it's connection. Pop a laptop into the network cable it is using and see what you can ping, I will bet the switch and/or cable for the member server got fried in the outage.

We had a power outage, and now we’re having authentication issues. The PDC seems to be coming up fine, but one of my NT member servers won’t authenticate to it. I see a NETLOGON message in the event viewer stating no domain controllers could be found. How can I determine if the PDC is running properly? How can I verify the proper services are running, etc. to service logon requests? Thanks!
