SEVERAL homes have been affected by power cuts in High Wycombe today.

An electrical fault has left 14 postcode areas without power since 6.47pm last night (April 10). 

19 customers in total are affected and have been without power since then.

SSEN said: "The cause of this power cut is a fault on our underground network. This is the most common type of fault we see and our teams are very experienced in dealing with these issues.

"In most cases, our engineers are able to restore power by simply replacing a fuse at the local substation, however, if the fault is sever, this may result in us needing to make full repair which can take longer.

"If this does happen, we will let you know."

Power is expected to come back on by 8pm tonight (April 11).

The 14 postcode areas affected are HP11 1NJ, HP11 1NP, HP11 1NT, HP13 6LE, HP13 6LF, HP13 6LJ, HP13 6LS, HP13 6LW, HP13 6NN, HP13 6NQ, HP13 6NR, HP13 6NU, HP13 6NZ and HP13 6RN
