Around 60 firefighters have been tackling a large blaze in a goods yard underneath electricity lines in east London, which left tens of thousands of people without power.
Twelve fire engines were at the scene in Canning Town where a warehouse, pallet yard and scrapyard were alight.
The London Fire Brigade said there were no reports of injuries.
UK Power Networks said 88,000 customers were left without power because of the blaze in Ives Road, near Bidder Street.
It said all power supplies had been restored just over an hour later.
A spokesman said: "We apologise to customers in east London who suffered a power cut today when a fire in Canning Town, which was not on our equipment, damaged overhead power lines.
"UK Power Networks engineers restored supplies to all customers within an hour and 10 minutes." [more]
