Break out the candles…
A power outage in the Dublin 7 area has left a large number of properties in the area without power.
The ESB are aware of the issue and their technicians are currently working on the repairs, which have affected over 3,800 customers.
The faults were initially reported at Pelletstown at 6.15 pm this evening.
Initially, the ESB said power would be restored by 7.15pm, but that timeline has now been pushed out until 11.45pm tonight.
