NORWALK An underground transformer failure in South Norwalk caused 56 Southern Norwalk Electric and Water customers to lose power Wednesday into Thursday, SNEW General Manager Alan Huth said.
The transformer, which was installed in 2006, experienced an internal failure, but SNEW is not sure what caused the failure, Huth said.
“The life expectancy for the transformer is 40 years,” Huth said. “We were lucky to have in stock for another maintenance project.”
