On Friday, July 7, a massive blaze broke out at the Lake Avenue substation in Wildwood, which had to be de-energized as a result.
This left thousands in the Wildwood area without power for over 24 hours.

Power was fully restored by the end of the weekend.
Atlantic City Electric said Wednesday that a preliminary cause indicates a cable fire located below the switchgear building. A final cause is still under investigation.
There is no indication that the incident was a result of foul play.
The electric company is also in the process of making repairs to the local energy grid and removing temporary generators that had been set up.
