Kenora Hydro says a downed power line caused only a momentary outage last night for most of its customers in the Lakeside area.
The line went down near 1st Avenue South and caused a small grass fire.
Hydro president, Dave Sinclair says the line likely fell down due to a faulty switch, which failed.
The incident took place shortly before 7:00 last night.
Kenora's Fire and Emergency Services Department was called out to deal with the blaze and were able to contain it fairly quickly.
