The Morning Call · last updated

Power was restored for more than 1,000 Easton residents who were without it Tuesday morning.

Met-Ed reported about 10 a.m. that all residents in Easton had power following an outage the day before that Met-Ed said was due to an equipment failure.

The city said in a social media post Monday morning that an outage happened on South Side, and many traffic signals were out in the area. At one point, about 2,400 residents did not have power.

Met-Ed spokesman Will Boye said about 8 a.m. Tuesday that the outage was caused by an equipment failure at an area substation. About 1,300 Easton residents were without power at that time.
