just had a huge powercut
here is some info about it
Waikato powercut hits 12,000
MATT BOWEN
Crews will work around the clock to restore power to more than 12,000 homes and businesses in Cambridge today after a Transpower substation was badly damaged following a large explosion last night.
Customers have been without power since midnight following the explosion, which happened at 11.53pm, said Transpower corporate communications manager Rebecca Wilson.
''We are still hopeful that power will be restored by midday but it could be a bit later,'' she said.
Wilson said staff were alerted ''in real time'' and responded to the substation on Watkins Road immediately but had to wait about an hour for smoke to clear from the explosion.
While a full investigation is planned, Wilson said the main priority was to get power restored.
Only eight staff could work on the repair at any one time due to the confined nature of the affected space.
When asked to describe the area affected she said to think a home switch board and times that by a thousand.
Wilson was not aware of any issues at the station leading up to the explosion which she described as ''a rare occurrence''.
She said Waipa District Council is advising people to conserve water and waste water because their pumps run on electricity.
Many businesses in Cambridge have ground to a halt without power.
It is understood Hautapu School is also closed for the day.
Fonterra is transporting milk to its Te Awamutu and Te Repa plants.
The Countdown Cambridge store is up and running today on generator power after the team mobilised at around 3.30am.
Northern fire communications manager Steve Smith said two fire crews from the Cambridge Volunteer Fire Brigade responded to the scene opposite 129 Watkins Rd at 12.15am.
Two crews went into the building wearing breathing apparatus and found there had been a ''major'' internal explosion.
Z Energy Cambridge operates 24 hours a day seven days a week but the outage forced them to shut up shop just after midnight. Site manager Ian Weston said all the pumps run on electricity and they had no choice but to close the doors.
''The local bakeries and hot bread shops, those staff have already gone home - it's across the board really.''
Fonterra Hautapu site manager Dave Young said they're diverting milk to a neighbouring factory to be processed.
"At this time of the year we have spare capacity at many of our sites," he said.
and the power is on now
