IT'S bad news for anyone who is home working today after a power cut hit four postcode areas in Bradford district.

Northern Powergrid reported the unplanned power cut at around 8am this morning and say it has been caused by 'an unexpected problem with the cables or equipment that serve your area'.

More than 2,500 households are affected.

Those postcodes are: BD10, BD12, BD16 and BD18.

Northern Powergrid says it is estimated to be fixed by 9.45am. 

One frustrated resident told the Telegraph & Argus: "I was just sat waiting to log on to my computer and suddenly everything went off. Alarms in the area were also going off so then I realised it must have been a power cut."
