Firefighters are working to extinguish a fire in an electrical kiosk at Auburn.
The fire broke out around 1.45pm in Auburn Road.
Five Fire and Rescue NSW (FRNSW) trucks have responded to the incident.
Authorities evacuated two nearby home units as a protective zone was established.
Power to the kiosk was cut as fire crews dealt with the flames and a large amount of transformer oil, which combined to create a large pall of smoke.
No-one has been injured in the incident.
NSW Police are diverting traffic around the fire scene.
