Shaun,
  I wouldn't turn anything on until it is thoughly dried out. I think that causes more damage than the water would.

  One time my brother called me to move a freezer out of his basement because water was coming in. By the time I got there (20 minutes) the freezer was floating so high it was hitting the 1st floor joists. The breaker box was completely underwater too. There was NO WAY we were getting into THAT water. We just stood there and watched it. It was amazing. At first water was gushing in the basement windows, then a little while later, water was gushing OUT of the windows. 

  He has a little creek near his house, and it basically took a detour THROUGH his house.
