BELCONNEN shopping mall was evacuated this morning after the detection of smoke and an electrical smell on level two of the recently refurbished centre.
Several ACT Fire & Rescue crews searched for the source of the smoke before locating an overheating motor in a plant room.
Shoppers were cleared to return to the mall at around midday.
