Power was restored early Tuesday morning for all customers in and near San Francisco’s Richmond District after a planned overnight outage, PG&E officials said.<\/p>\n
According to PG&E, the outage was needed to help return its Mission Substation and the related electric grid to normal operations. The power company announced the service restoration around 12:25 a.m.<\/p>\n
The Richmond District outage had been scheduled to begin shortly after midnight and affect about 14,000 customers. A small portion of the Sunset District, between 19th and 27th avenues just south of Lincoln Way, was also expected to be affected.<\/p>\n
The work followed another planned outage that affected about 3,600 customers near the Civic Center. Electricity was restored by Monday morning, PG&E officials said.<\/p>\n
Both outages are linked to repairs and testing at the Mission Substation, where a fire on Dec. 20 knocked out electricity to roughly a third of the city for up to three days. After that, PG&E has used temporary generators and alternate grid configurations to keep power flowing while permanent fixes were completed.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Power was restored early Tuesday morning for all customers in and near San Francisco’s Richmond District after a…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":141801,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[30],"tags":[5653,101,103,102,104,106,105],"class_list":{"0":"post-141800","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-san-francisco","8":"tag-power-outages","9":"tag-san-francisco","10":"tag-san-francisco-headlines","11":"tag-san-francisco-news","12":"tag-sf","13":"tag-sf-headlines","14":"tag-sf-news"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/141800","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=141800"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/141800\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/141801"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=141800"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=141800"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=141800"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
