About 57,600 people were without power for about two hours Monday afternoon during a major outage in Salt Lake County, according to Rocky Mountain Power.
The problem came from a circuit breaker at 6000 West Old Bingham Highway at 12:17 p.m., and power was restored by 2 p.m., according to a news release.
Spokeswoman Tiffany Erickson said that the failure caused a power interruption on a transmission line, which feeds into “a number” of substations.
Due to the outage, TRAX service was temporarily unavailable from Jordan Valley to Daybreak on the Red Line, the Utah Transit Authority tweeted, but the train was running again by 2 p.m.
Additionally, the power bump caused several refineries in southern Davis County to have “extra flaring at their stacks,” a tweet from South Davis Metro Fire said. The extra flaring was visible as outpourings of black smoke that could be seen from miles away.
