57 properties without power in Wolverhampton after 'fault'
Electricity engineers are investigating the cause of a Wolverhampton power cut
More than 50 properties in Wolverhampton are without any power supplies on Sunday(30).
Power company National Grid said the issue initially affecting around 100 properties in Parkfield was being caused by a low voltage fault. Streets affected include Parkfield Road, Wolverhampton Road East and Greenly Road.
The service apologised for the inconvenience and said that at 1.40pm the supply to 64 had been restored with 57 still off.
It added that its engineers were currently investigating the fault following reports made shortly after 6am.
The National Grid website stated: “We know you're without power. We were alerted at 6.16am this morning and our engineers are working to get your electricity back on as quickly as possible.
“We're sorry for the disruption.
“We give you our best estimate for when your power will be back on, based on what we know at the time. Times might change if we face unexpected challenges getting to the fault.
“These times show when the last person in the area will have power back - most of you will be reconnected before this.”
