A powercut is affecting a number of homes in Canvey.
UK Power Networks are currently working to fix the 'unplanned' power cut, after receiving 32 calls about the power outage.
The incident was first reported at 7.13pm, with the issue believed to be as a result of an equipment fault at the substation near Surig Road.
It's believed that only one postcode, SS8 9, has been affected, and it's estimated that power will be back on between 9.30pm and 10.30pm this evening.
