Almost 3,000 homes in East Galway and Roscommon are without electricity this afternoon due to a very large power outage.

The power outage first reported by the ESB just after 1pm today was caused by a fault in the Ballygar area.

The ESB initially estimated that power would be restored by 1:45pm, but repairs have not been completed as of yet.
