Most people won't have to. The substation area covers 62,000 properties, but only 4,800 are actually without power as a result of the incident. In addition they are expecting restoration of power by 15:00 same-day.[1]

It is.

If you read the text on the link it very much describes the situation, e.g. talking about the substation.

Second, the start time and other data (e.g. number of properties affected) correlates with that stated by the London Fire Brigade on their website[1]
