Many residents across the city have been left stranded after they were without electricity since yesterday afternoon.
Most of the areas affected included the southern surburbs such as the Tokai and Constantia areas.
Other areas included the Meadowridge, Bergfleet and Retreat areas.
They have been left in the dark after a major power outage.
Officials from the city say the blackout was caused by a faulty cable at the Retreat power station.
The city dispatched technicians to the station and they have been working around the clock since yesterday.
However the city has assured residents that electricity will be back later today.
