The aftershock at 5.45am caused a transformer at our Dallington substation to trip leaving 10,000 customers in the Dallington area without power. Our teams are working at restoring power to the affected area as soon as possible.

We are also waiting to hear from Transpower who are checking equipment at their Bromley substation.

There have been no reports of any other damage to our network at this time.
