Western Power Distribution confirmed to Burnham-On-Sea.com that a fault had occurred at 10.21pm, affecting 23 homes in the village.
“We were called to a sub-station fault in Church Road which left 23 homes without power,” said Tacy Carr, spokesman for the power company. “They were re-connected at 12.09am.”
“Unfortunately, the fault with a fuse blowing in a sub-station re-ocurred at 5.16am this morning (Thursday) and 15 homes were without power. Ten of these have been switched onto an alternative supply and the five remaining ones will be re-connected by the end of today.”
