SINGAPORE : A faulty cable caused a 15-minute long power trip in Bishan and parts of Ang Mo Kio on Thursday afternoon.
SP Power Grid said the electricity supply was interrupted at about 1.30pm.
It took steps to progressively restore electricity supply, which was fully restored within 15 minutes.
The interruption of electricity supply affected buildings and residents in the vicinity, as well as a number of MRT stations.
The platform doors at Bishan MRT station could not open properly.
Shops had to resort to manual practices as their cash machines stopped working and shoppers could not use their credit cards to pay.
SP PowerGrid said it is conducting further investigations into the cause of the interruption.
It apologises for the inconvenience caused. - CNA/ms
