The power is back on in Kaiapoi.
Electricity was cut in the Pine Acres area of Kaiapoi just before 4pm when a tree fell onto power lines as it was being cut down on Main North Road, State Highway One.
Fire Service shift manager Rewai Grace says a fire started when the tree hit the power lines, but it is now out.
