Cable fault cuts power to 3,262 customers in Copenhagen and Frederiksberg

A cable fault caused a power outage affecting 3,262 customers in Nørrebro, Frederiksberg and northwest Copenhagen on Friday evening, DR reported.

Radius, the electricity grid company, said the outage began at 19:45. The company’s press officer, Philip Brønnum Olesen, told DR at 20:25 that power had been restored to most customers, while around 1,000 were still without electricity. He expected their supply to return within the following hour.

More than 100 customers in northwest Copenhagen had also experienced an outage earlier in the day, which Radius attributed to an operational fault.
