A POWER cut has left hundreds of homes in Leigh in the dark this evening, Tuesday.
The outage was reported at 6.30pm today, December 17.
Electricity North West says 451 properties in the south of the town have been affected.
The expected restoration time is shortly after midnight tonight, at 12.28am.
A statement by Electricity North West said: "This power cut has been caused by an unexpected incident with the underground cable that provides electricity to your home or business.
"We didn't know before your electricity went off that this was going to happen but now we know, rest assured we will get your power back on safely and as quickly as possible.
"Please note that all our timescales are estimated based on previous experience and may change if new information becomes available while our engineers are fixing the issue.
"With underground power cuts, we may need to dig to repair the cable and this can sometime extend the length of time you are without power."
