An outage temporarily knocked out power to about 5,500 customers in the Sunset district, according to Pacific Gas & Electric Co.

A downed wire at 46th Avenue and Ortega Street caused the outage around 11:20 a.m., PG&E spokesman Joe Molica said.

PG&E crews repaired the problem and restored power to all customers just after noon, Molica said.

The outages were scattered around various areas in the Sunset district, including from 21st to 36th avenues and also out on Great Highway, Molica said.
