A police spokesman said: “This has been been confirmed as an electrical fault, which has affected neighbouring properties.
“SSE are currently dealing with this, however there may be considerable disruption in the area for some time while the problem is investigated and dealt with.
“Please try and stay away from the area if you can.”
