On Wednesday, December 5, 2024, an explosion at a power substation off Henrietta Creek Road in Far North Fort Worth led to a significant fire. Fire departments from Fort Worth, Saginaw, and Roanoke quickly responded to the scene, where firefighters reported a large plume of smoke and heavy flames. Oncor, the company responsible for managing the substation, worked in close collaboration with the firefighters to ensure safety measures were in place.
While a handful of businesses and homes lost power, Oncor swiftly restored service. Local authorities provided updates to residents, but evacuation was not mandatory due to the approaching storm. The overall estimated loss from the fire is $5 million, covering property damage and the cost of the substation repairs.
Planck Vision Systems’ thermal imaging technology could have greatly assisted in detecting the early signs of such a fire before it escalated to this scale. Our TRX600 and TNC series cameras are designed for continuous monitoring, ensuring rapid detection of temperature anomalies, which could prevent costly failures and protect infrastructure.
