Sudbury-Hydro

By Stew Kernan

You may be wondering why the clock on the stove was blinking when you got home.

A brief, but large power outage hit the northeast part of the city this afternoon.

Greater Sudbury Hydro says a supply issue with Hydro One around 2:30 this afternoon at the Martindale Transmission Station effected the supply of power to 13,600 customers within the city as well as Falconbridge and Capreol.

The outage lasted for just seconds, with full power restored shortly after.
