About the electricity - it's happening repeatedly (9)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

recurrent

'happening repeatedly' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

'about the electricity' is the wordplay.
'about' becomes 're' (regarding).
'the electricity' becomes 'current' (current electricity is a kind of electricity).
're'+'current'='RECURRENT'

'it's' acts as a link.

(Other definitions for recurrent that I've seen before include "Happening repeatedly" , "Periodic" , "Periodical" , "Occurring repeatedly" , "Happening often" .)

I've seen this clue in the Evening Standard.
