Turbo construction site in Heinersreuth: Power supply secured before Christmas!

in Heinersreuth occurred on Saturday, December 14, 2024, around 11:30 a.m. a far -reaching power failure, which also affected parts of Eckersdorf and Obernsees. The reason for this was a defective 20,000-volt power cable that was discovered near the sports field. As Bayreuther Tagblatt , the damaged body was quickly localized by the measuring car team of the municipal works. Instead of a conventional repair, those responsible decided to renew the entire cable over a length of 180 meters due to previous damage.

In order to complete the work before Christmas, the municipal utilities relied on an innovative approach. According to Kurier , elaborate burial work could be avoided. Instead, only five so -called head holes were excavated, which not only saved a significant time, but also possible traffic chaos along the busy B85. A special suction excavator was used to vacuum the ground in difficult areas and to facilitate the installation of the new cable.

Despite the complications, the power supply in Obernsees was restored at 11:42 a.m.; In Heinersreuth, the residents had to wait until 1:12 p.m. Stadtwerke spokesman Jan Koch explained that the network was designed in such a way that sections could be made in power and the customers could be supplied. The final repair of the defective cable will be carried out in the coming week.
