The large outages — two on the east side near Boulder Highway and Flamingo Road and one on the west side near Washington Avenue and Michael Way— were reported shortly before 2 a.m. Each affected more than 2,000 customers, according to the NV Energy outage website.
The outages were restored at various times, the last about 5:10 a.m.
About 400 customers in the Mount Charleston area lost power for about 5 hours on Sunday evening.
