These are the postcode areas in the North East and North Yorkshire where power could be switched off today.

Northern Powergrid has confirmed that hundreds of homes across parts of the region are expected to be affected by the switch-off on Friday.

The power is being switched off temporarily in planned works so that the utility company can carry out repairs in the specified areas.

It comes as some planned power cuts in the region, due to take place yesterday, were cancelled.
