Power Being Restored to the Transpower Network

At 1:03pm, Transpower started to restore power to its network following a power outage that affected the Cambridge area since 12am this morning. Parts of Cambridge township were livened at this time, and business and residents in these areas will have their power back on.

Once Transpower’s network is fully restored, Waipa Networks, the local lines company will need up to one further hour to gradually restore the rest of its network to provide power to all customers.

Transpower will continue to monitor the performance of the repaired equipment closely.
