Power was cut to two different circuits around midnight because of underground equipment failures. That outage impacted about 3,800 users.

About 1,400 customers in the east part of the avenues had their power cut until 3:20 a.m., and about 2,200 customers - peppered through an area of the city spanning north and south from South Temple to 1800 South and east to west from 1400 East to 700 East - had their power restored around 2 a.m., according to Rocky Mountain Power spokesman Jeff Hymas.

“Hopefully most of the affected customers slept through it and didn’t realize until they woke up that it had even happened,” Hymas said. “Of course, it’s always an inconvenience, even if it occurs overnight. People have to reset clocks.”

But 153 customers - mostly in apartment complexes around 1100 East between 100 South and South Temple - dealt with the outage into Wednesday afternoon. Their power was restored at 1:20 p.m., Hymas said.

At about 7 a.m. Wednesday, about 87 customers in the 700 East and 1300 South area blacked out after a vehicle crashed into a power pole and downed lines.

Crews replaced the pole and repaired the damaged eqiupment, and power was restored just after 3 p.m.
