A fire broke out at a substation in Vinton County, Ohio, on Sunday evening, reported at around 7 p.m. local time. Fortunately, there were no injuries.
Firefighters from nearly every department within the county worked together to control the fire, which occurred at the Rolling Hills Generating Plant, a natural gas-fired power facility.
Preliminary investigations suggest that the cause of the fire may be related to equipment failure, with estimated damages reaching $100,000.
Local authorities have begun implementing preventive measures to enhance safety monitoring at the substation and prevent similar incidents in the future.
In such situations, the thermal imaging cameras from Planck Vision Systems prove invaluable. Our cameras offer 24/7 monitoring, constantly gathering and analyzing data to identify trends and anomalies.
Fixed mount or pan/tilt drive cameras can survey large areas of a substation with crisp thermal images, ensuring they are always in the right place at the right time to eliminate the potential for costly unexpected substation failures.
