Brisket was put on smoker at 2am, power out at 5am (electric smoker). Placed in fridge at 7:30 for food safety.

Think the brisket will be ok health wise?

What temp was the cooker set at? What was the meat temp when you removed it from the smoker?

if it was cooked for only 3 hours w heat then i assume the  element  went out in your smoker. its prob not even halfway cooked ,prob only got to 100-130 degrees  internal  temp at that 3-4  hour mark. depending  on the cooking temp i wouldn't eat it  like that it will be under cooked and chewy

Should be fine, but you have to cook it again.

Finish the cook it's fine. The surface got sterilized in the first 30-60 minutes, then was chilled stopping any new bacteria from growing...JJ
