Some homes won't have power restored until this evening.
Power has been restored to the vast majority of homes affected by serious faults on the Leitrim/Roscommon border yesterday (Tuesday) evening, however at least 31 homes in Co Roscommon are still awaiting reconnection.
A number of faults were reported after 7pm on Tuesday, leaving at least 600 properties without power for a number of hours along the Roscommon/Leitrim border.
According to the latest updates from ESB Networks this morning (Wednesday, August 23) 14 homes in the Hillstreet area will not see power restored until lunchtime.
A further 17 homes between Rooskey and Strokestown will be without power until 5pm.
