Several hundred homes are without power in Sunnyvale in west Auckland because of weather damage to a power pole.

On Sunday evening, 1500 properties in Sunnyvale were cut off but Vector said that number had later been reduced to 500.

A spokesperson for the lines company said the loss of power was weather related and electricity was due to be restored at 11.30pm.
