A huge power outage plunged millions of people across Central America into darkness Saturday Will Fuller V Black Jersey , as authorities from Panama to Costa Rica to El Salvador scrambled to restore electrical service.
The blackout affected some 5 million people in Costa Rica alone, where officials largely had managed to restore service after a nationwide power outage lasting about five hours.

Countries in the region, from Guatemala to Panama, are connected by the same power grid, covering an expanse of some 1,800 kilometers.
But that interconnectedness means that the countries of Central America are vulnerable when there are power grid malfunctions in any one.
Chaos reigned in the Costa Rican capital after traffic lights ceased to function, while the main airport in San Jose had to run on backup power until the power system was up and running again.
The blackout was the first experienced in Costa Rica, among the most developed countries in Latin America, since 2001.
Officials said as many as 2 million people were left in the dark in Panama, with an undetermined number affected in Nicaragua and El Salvador.
Details were not immediately available about how many people were affected by the blackout elsewhere in Central America, or whether they had managed to get their power systems back up and running.
Officials at the Costa Rican Institute for Electricity said power was disrupted in the entire country, but was restored in most places by 6 pm.

VIENTIANE, June 27 (Xinhua) -- Lao Prime Minister Thongloun Sisoulith has called for combined efforts from the Lao people from all walks of life to join global citizens in the fight against illegal drug trade and abuse as it is still a major problem for Laos.
In his speech on Monday to mark the International Day against Drug Abuse and Illicit Trafficking which has been observed on June 26 annually since 1987, the prime minister said illicit drug abuse and trade is dangerous for the humankind and is the cause of crimes and corruption, which hinders socio-economic development and also causes huge losses to individuals and families who have fallen victim of drugs.
For Lao residents, illicit drug use and trade is still a major problem in the country.
"Any community in Laos has problems with drugs, including rural and city areas and with teenagers and old people as well," said Mai, a resident of the Longxan district in Lao's central Xaysomboun province.
"It's easy to find a drug dealer. What I have seen is the authorities still don't cooperate well with each other and some local level authorities don't care to give information to their seniors when they find neighborhood drug dealers because some of them could be their friends or neighbors," the Vientiane Times quote the man as saying.
"Drugs are a big problem in the world and difficult to solve, including in Laos. Recently there are many young people taking drugs although the police work hard every day to fight this problem. I see many young people don't have opportunities to become educated or work because they are involved with drugs," according to Dam Sisongmeuang, a resident in the Thadeua village, Hadxaifong district in Vientiane.
In light of the issue, the prime minister outlined seven measures in an effort to suppress the drug issue in the Lao society.
He asked party committees and authorities at all levels and in all sectors in society to consider drug prevention, control and solution efforts as their obligation and task.
"The task must be taken as a focal task associated with grass-root political building affairs," he said in his address, which was quoted by Lao state-run media Vientiane Times.
He asked for the continuing improvement of the organizational structure of the drug inspection and control authorities to make the authorities function more effectively.
The relevant authorities were told to take decisive action to prevent and suppress traffickers in the illicit drug trade in all localities along with identifying targeted traffickers regardless of their nationalities.
Thongloun called for increased cooperation with international communities, notably neighboring countries, in order to exchange information and join efforts to prevent and eradicate production, illicit trade and transport of addictive drugs as well as chemical substances used to produce drugs.
Authorities in charge were told to carry out more awareness-raising campaigns in Lao society, targeting young people in particular, to make them more aware of the dangers of illicit drug abuse and trade so they stay away from the issue.
