San Pedro town had an extensive blackout which went from last night all the way through to today. The island's power went at 9:17 pm due to a faulty substation breaker. Sounds simple enough, but technicians had to re-configure the substation to isolate the faulty equipment. Power was restored to customers during the course of today.
It's a major inconvenience for the country's major tourism hub, and
BEL will be having a town meeting on Monday, July 11 to discuss power problems.
