According to another tweet, Entegrus Inc. said that the issue was with one of Hydro One's transmission stations, "Kent T-S".
In a "separate issue," Merlin experienced a town-wide outage around 11 p.m. Power was restored to the town shortly before midnight. That outage was due to a piece of defective equipment.
