Transpower made good progress raising a temporary tower to restore one of its two 220 kV transmission lines (circuits) into Northland today.

Electricity demand is much less on weekends and Transpower expects that the 110kV line and local generation should be able to supply all of Northland over the weekend.

Transpower is calling on those in areas from Warkworth northwards who have power to conserve it until full electricity supply can be restored to the region.

Partial power restoration is on the way for Northland and some people have already been reconnected.

Northland is without power after a Transpower tower fell near Glorit at 11am this morning.
