Smoke in the substation: Thousands of Frankfurt residents without electricity | Regional

Frankfurt – Hours of power failure in three districts of Frankfurt! Because a current transformer in the substation failed, the residents in Nied, Höchst and Unterliederbach had to help themselves out with candles in the evening.

At 5:20 p.m., the fire brigade moved out due to smoke development in the Höchst substation. The fire brigade provided fresh air with a large fan, and emergency services were also on site in the districts to help residents.
