Wallaceburg Power Outage

Entegrus is working to improve its system to prevent future outages like one in Wallaceburg over the weekend. light-bulb

The lights went out Saturday evening, affecting about 500 customers.

The utility says the outage was caused by a blown lightning arrester at a customer-owned station, which caused the Entegrus system to trip.

Officials say crews had trouble finding the third party equipment, which lead to some delays in getting the lights back on.
