Explosion at transformer in power plant challenges Florianis
An operation for the Florianis in Brandberg in the Tyrolean district of Schwaz on Saturday. An explosion had occurred at a transformer in a power station. The emergency services were just able to prevent the worst from happening.
The Floriani firefighters were alerted shortly before 11 am. The control center had reported a fire in the area of the Häusling power plant. "The volunteer fire department was able to determine on site that the insulator of a 220 kv transformer had exploded," said the investigators.
Transformer switched off in time
This had caused the fire, which resulted in a large amount of smoke. "By switching off the transformer, greater damage was prevented." The amount of damage caused is still unclear. The possibility of third-party fault can be ruled out.
