The system equipment suffered some damage and needed to be tested and inspected before power could be restored to the area.
“We thank our team who has worked tirelessly to restore the system quickly and safely in challenging conditions," said Gianna Manes, President and CEO, ENMAX Corporation.

In the last seven days, ENMAX has restored power for 34,000 customers who were left without power as a result of the flood.
The utility will continue to work through the reconnection of individual buildings as they are repaired and as the requests come in through 311.
