The fault, which was traced to an underground cable, was reported just before 7.20am on Monday. Around 950 customers in the Dunkeld Road area were hit and the fault was fully resolved in just over an hour. Many residents did not have to wait that long, however, as the power was restored in stages. An SSE spokesman said: “We would like to apologise for any inconvenience this caused.”
