Hundreds of customers were left without power overnight following a crash in the eastern suburbs of Rotorua.
A police spokesman said police were called to a crash between a car and a power pole on Te Ngae Rd around 11pm.
There were no injuries but the vehicle and power pole were damaged, he said.
Power remained out for several customers this morning.
The power company and Fire and Emergency New Zealand were advised, he said.
A Unison spokesperson said the crash caused an outage that initially affected over 1500 customers shortly before 11pm last night.
“This was reduced to 61 customers before midnight.
“The remaining 61 customers were impacted until shortly before 9am this morning while repairs were completed.”
