Several areas in Mumbai, including Mahim and Matunga, experienced a power outage on Sunday morning, temporarily disrupting daily activities for residents.
The Brihanmumbai Electric Supply and Transport (BEST) undertaking reported receiving complaints about the outage around 10:36 AM from the City Light section in Mahim.
Upon inspection, officials identified the cause as a tripping incident in an 11,000-volt cable feeder linking the Nutan Vaishali Substation to the Mahapalwadi Substation.
The tripping resulted from excessive power consumption, impacting the power supply to five substations in the area.
Authorities acted promptly, and power was fully restored by 11:50 AM. Officials have reassured residents that necessary precautions will be implemented to prevent similar occurrences in the future.
