An estimated 25,000 Xcel customers in East Denver lost power this evening because of a problem at the same substation that exploded in June.
Xcel spokesman Tom Henley said all power was restored before 7 p.m.
Street lights were out in the area, and the fire department was busy working a number of elevator rescues in the area, according to a spokesman.
No explosion was reported at the substation at 1310 Jackson St.
Outages were reported from First to 26th avenues and Downing to Uinta streets.
The widespread outages began at about 5:15 p.m.
The explosion at about 6:30 p.m. on June 7 knocked out power to about 31,000 customers in the same general area, after an explosion sent a fireball and tower of smoke above the busy neighborhood.
A week later, a replacement part malfuctioned and caused outages to about 6,000 customers.
