Explosion causes Cambridge power outage

Twelve thousand customers in Waikato, Cambridge experienced a power out and it'll be there until at least noon on friday after an explosion at a substation.

The Transpower staff had been told about it happening and that there was damage to the substation's 11KV indoor switch gear, don't know what that is but it sounds important and crews would be trying to fix it and the repair will be finished around midday.

I think that because of this people will be reduced to finding new ways to do stuff. I also think that it's not too much of a big deal as it's getting fixed so there's really nothing to worry about.
