A power outage in southeastern San Luis Obispo county cut power for more than 1,300 customers Tuesday morning.

According to PG&E’s outage map, 1,307 customers lost power around 9:01 a.m.

It was an “unplanned outage,” the agency said, and a team was sent to evaluate the electrical system to determine how to repair any damage and restore power.

As of 9:50 a.m., the outage map showed no repairs had been started.

The map showed the outage affecting customers from Buckley Road near Tank Farm to Price Canyon Road, mostly on the south side of Broad. Some customers along Price Canyon Road were also affected.

It was unclear when power would be turned back on.
