The incident in the TF3 postcode area of Telford was first reported at 1pm and National Grid said it expects power to be restored by 6.30pm.

Meanwhile, in Bridgnorth properties in WV16 have been affected since 3.17pm and the problem is expected to be resolved by 5.30pm.

National Grid says 'low voltage' incidents "tend to be smaller, more localised and could be why some of your neighbours still have power".
