Around 1,918 properties in Currumbin Waters have been affected, while an additional 14 in Burleigh Waters are also blacked out.

There are also a number of traffic lights out in the areas affected.

The power outages are believed to have been caused by two separate incidents.

While firefighters were also called to an explosion from power lines along BienVenue Drive, Currumbin Waters at 3.10pm with reports of a transformer sparking.
