Idris Martin reporting.
The power outage that struck businesses and domestic dwellings around mid-day in Weymouth on Christmas Day has been traced to a fault in an 11,000 volt HV electric cable beneath the pavement on Weymouth’s Custom House Quay.
Southern Electric engineers isolated the faulty cable and restored the supply to the area, and now that they have traced the fault, their engineers are on site to effect a repair to the faulty cable.
