There is a reason why power outages have occurred since the radio typhoon
Power facilities were directly damaged
Every typhoon, especially severe typhoons and super typhoons, bring violent storms, It can overturn a 10,000-ton ship, uproot or break large trees, twist billboards into twists, and of course break electric poles, pull off wires, and even twist some towers into twists, which can cause power outages or Power outage occurred over a large area.
Indirect damage to power facilities
During the typhoon, various objects lifted up by strong winds and downed trees can easily fall or fall on power supply equipment and power lines, causing damage to equipment and lines. Short circuit damage, causing local or large area power outage.
Power facilities were destroyed by floods
There are also floods, mudslides, landslides and strong winds caused by heavy rains, which can also cause the collapse of poles and towers, causing local or large-scale disasters. power failure.
There are three situations where the power supply company will take the initiative to cut off the power supply
For personal safety
When a flood occurs, if a broken live wire falls into the water, Or the transformer loses power due to being soaked in water. Once reverse power transmission or leakage occurs, it is easy to cause electric shock accidents.
For equipment safety
If the electrical equipment in the powered state is soaked in standing water for a long time, the electrical components will easily get water, causing damage to the electrical equipment. This will greatly affect the progress of post-disaster repairs and restoration of power supply.
