A POWER outage throughout North Ayrshire left thousands of homes and businesses without electricity this afternoon.
The Three Towns, Kilwinning, Dalry and West Kilbride were all affected by the outage, which lasted around 30 minutes.
It is not yet clear what caused it but SP Energy Network confirmed that supplies had been restored to all customers shortly after 2.45pm.
