Over 500 Salem Electric customers in Keizer and north Salem briefly lost power on March 5.
The power outage was reported by Salem Electric at 10:24 a.m. The co-op said power was restored about an hour later.
Salem Electric said two of its substations that receive power from the Bonneville Power Administration lost power and the company rerouted power from other stations.
Portland General Electric, which services power to the northern half of Keizer, did not report outages and Salem Electric’s West Salem customers were unaffected.
