More than 2,500 Homer Electric Association customers on Monday morning were affected by a power outage caused by a “faulty cable.”
The company shared updates on the outage via its Facebook page. An update shared at 9:18 a.m. on Monday said that HEA crews responded to the outage, which was affecting 2,667 members in the Mackey Lake area due to a faulty cable.
Power was restored to most of the affected members by 11:10 a.m., though more than 150 were still without power.
“We expect to have power restored to those members shortly,” the post said.
Power was restored to all members by the early afternoon.
