In various places in the Hallertau, the power went out on Thursday.
The network operator describes the incident that led to the cause of the fault.
Update 1:17 p.m.:
As the energy supplier, Bayernwerk Netz GmbH, has just reported, the technicians were successful: “The fault has been fixed!
All 30,000 households are supplied again. ”According to the company, the power outage lasted from 11:45 am to 12:38 pm.
First report from Thursday, November 25th, 2021:
Au / Hallertau
- For many of those affected it is likely to be an extremely annoying déjà-vu: After the power failed in Au in der Hallertau in mid-September of this year, the electricity network was again disrupted this Thursday.
However, that much is already certain, this time a significantly larger number of localities and certainly more than the 1,000 households at the time will be affected.
Bavaria: Power failure in large parts of the Hallertau - Bayernwerk calls the reason
There are currently reports of failed power from, among others,
Au / Hallertau, Nandlstadt, Rudelzhausen, Attenkirchen, Mainburg, Wolnzach, Rotteneck, Elsendorf, Staudhausen, Schweitenkirchen, Rohrbach, Aiglsbach and Geisenfeld
.
As in September, the responsible energy supplier is Bayernwerk Netz GmbH.
Their deputy press spokesman, Michael Bartels, reported to our newspaper that an incident was the cause: "While working on a 110 kV high-voltage line, one rope fell back on another." This led to protective shutdowns in the network, including three of the operator's substations failed.
Large-scale power outages are currently occurring in the Mainburg, Rottenegg and Au area.
A line contact in the high-voltage network resulted in automatic safety shutdowns in three substations.
People were not injured.
We'll be back shortly.
