Testing of Lansing substation cuts power to 14K customers
Lansing's electric utility says future testing of a substation will be performed on nights and weekends after nearly 14,000 customers lost power during a test. The Lansing Board of Water & Light says the outage occurred when a portion of the Eckert substation tripped offline during required testing. The 90-minute outage ended shortly before 11:30 a.m. Tuesday.
