A major fire broke out at the power grid substation in Gurugram on Sunday, February 9, 2025, at 8:40 am, leading to an extensive 36-hour blackout across several sectors. The fire affected at least 10,000 families in housing societies along the Dwarka Expressway, including sectors 99, 102, 103, 107, 108, and 109.

The fire caused severe damage to the 220kV substation in Sector 107, including the destruction of a set of 220/33kV transmission lines and the entire control panel. This damage has been estimated to result in a financial loss of approximately ₹10-11 crore, according to Haryana Vidyut Prasaran Nigam Limited (HVPN).

With no electricity, residents were forced to rely on diesel generators, which many considered both financially draining and harmful to the environment. One frustrated resident, Brigadier Anil Hooda (Retd.) from Sobha City in Sector 108, expressed his concerns about the long-term effects of these generators, which not only add to the pollution but are also costly for everyday use.

A high-level committee, led by a senior engineer, has been formed to investigate the cause of the fire. The investigation will determine if an operational failure, sudden power surge, or faulty equipment was the root cause. If substandard materials are found to have contributed to the incident, appropriate action will be taken against contractors.

This incident underscores the critical need for proactive monitoring and early detection systems in substations. Planck Vision Systems’ thermal imaging cameras provide 24/7 monitoring of substations, allowing operators to detect abnormal heat signatures before a fire becomes visible, preventing costly downtime and extensive damage. By constantly gathering data and analyzing trends, these cameras can ensure that substations are protected from unexpected failures, offering a valuable layer of safety.
