Power has been restored after a feeder fault cut electricity to more than 800 households in central Auckland this afternoon.

The fault caused businesses and homes in Freemans Bay and Newton to lose power.

Lines company Vector said its network control room was told about a feeder fault at 12.49pm.

A short time ago, Vector said all customers except one have now had their power restored.

The lines company said power was restored to affected customers at 1.40pm.

Vector said 841 households and businesses were affected.
