2,900 Penelec Customers Without Power

UPDATE: Power has been restored to most customers. 60 are still without power as of 11 a.m.

About 2,900 Penelec customers in the north and west ends of Bradford are without power this morning after a lockout at a high voltage circuit, affecting the Bradford West and Bradford North substations.

Penelec’s Linda Routzhan says crews have not determined the cause yet. She said it’s possible that this morning’s thunderstorm contributed to the outage, by possibly knocking down a tree.

She said there’s no estimate as to when power will be restored because crews are still assessing the situation. The outage started at about 7:45 a.m.

Power is out at Pitt-Bradford, but classes are on. Power is out at the library, but the doors will open at 10 a.m.
