Thousands of New Brunswickers remained without power Tuesday morning following a transmission outage the day before.
NB Power reported more than 4,600 homes and businesses without electricity in the Charlotte Southwest region as of 11 a.m.
The utility said most should have their power restored by early afternoon but others may have to wait until early this evening.
“We can confirm that this outage was caused by an equipment issue in the transmission system,” Dominique Couture, a spokesperson for NB Power, said in an email Tuesday.
Couture said they are aiming to restore all impacted customers before the end of the day Tuesday.
As a result of the outage, Anglophone South School District schools in St. Stephen, Milltown and Lawrence Station are closed on Tuesday.
The transmission issue also affected thousands of homes and businesses throughout southeastern Maine.
The Eastern Maine Electric Cooperative (EMEC) reported more than 10,000 customers without power around mid-morning Thursday. They had their power restored by around 11 a.m. Atlantic Time.
“The issue is a faulty switch in [NB Power’s] Oak Bay station along with a downed line on their line that feeds EMECs system,” the utility said on its website.
