What was that? Utility lines touching causes 15-minute outage for about 1.7K near Dayton

According to the map, the outage was reported at 9:29 p.m., and has an estimated restoration time of 11 p.m.

However, AES said that the map was incorrect, and power had only been out since 10:07 p.m. Power was restored at 10:21 p.m.

Officials said the outage was caused when an RTA bus was disconnecting from power and pushed another company’s lines into the AES power lines.

This triggered a safety mechanism called a lockout which shut the power off and reported a possible line down.

Crews investigated and restored power about 15 minutes later.
