Johannesburg: Electrical fire underground causes power outage

WARNING: This is Version 1 of my old archive, so Photos will NOT work and many links will NOT work. But you can find articles by searching on the Titles. There is a lot of information in this archive. Use the SEARCH BAR at the top right. Prior to December 2012; I was a pro-Christian type of Conservative. I was unaware of the mass of Jewish lies in history, especially the lies regarding WW2 and Hitler. So in here you will find pro-Jewish and pro-Israel material. I was definitely WRONG about the Boeremag and Janusz Walus. They were for real.

Johannesburg City Power workers were ventilating the burnt electric chambers that caused a power failure on Wednesday in the Johannesburg CBD, spokesperson Sol Masolo said.

“Were are busy taking smoke out of the chambers so that we can be able to replace or repair the burnt cables,” said Masolo.

An electrical fire in an underground cable system below Commissioner Street caused power failures in some parts of the Johannesburg CBD on Wednesday morning.

Masolo said some people may have been trying to steal cables from the underground chambers.

“We suspect somebody started the fire underground. A number of streets are affected by the power cut, including in the Newtown area.

“We are busy assessing the damage caused by this incident,” said Masolo.

He could not say when power would be restored in the affected areas. – Sapa
