According to AES spokeswoman Mary Ann Kabel, this outage was caused by a circuit lockout, which is a safety device that cuts the power when a disturbance is detected.
It is unclear what caused the disturbance, but Kabel said AES crews responded and restored power to 1,959 households within half an hour.
As of 10:30 p.m., she said that most everyone’s power has been restored. She also pointed out there were around 90 customers in that area in the dark, but it is unclear whether that is connected to the earlier outage.
