Airplane doors

I had a friend who was travelling on a flight from Glasgow to Belfast last week. When disembarking, the aircraft doors would not open. They had to wait a few minutes whilst the captain turned off all the electrical systems to release the doors. This is the first time I have heard of this. Why did it happen? Is it a de-pressurisation problem?
