SAN DIEGO (KGTV) – Overnight power outages left thousands of San Diego Gas & Electric customers in the city and parts of North County without service Friday. 

According to SDG&E’s Outage Map, power went out in the following communities: 

  • Encinitas/Cardiff/Olivenhain (power outage reported Friday at 6:10 a.m.)
  • Normal Heights (power outage reported late Thursday night)
  • North Park (power outage reported late Thursday night)
  • University Heights (power outage reported late Thursday night)

In the San Diego communities, SDG&E noted crews were working to repair equipment.
By 4 p.m., most customers had their power back on; however, a handful of customers in the North County area were still waiting for it to be restored.

For the Encinitas/Cardiff/Olivenhain outage, the cause was determined to be equipment-related.
