Construction vehicle hit overhead line: driver safe and sound
A crane crashed into an overhead power line in Enns on Monday morning. The driver was freed from his vehicle by the fire department. It was initially unclear what had happened to him. When the rescuers were able to reach him, it turned out that he was fortunately uninjured.
The Enns fire department was called out to rescue a person in an electrical accident shortly before 8.30 am. An incident occurred during construction work for a high-voltage power line when a drilling rig ran into a 110 kV high-voltage power line on the way to the construction site.
Exemplary reaction
The contact caused a short circuit, accompanied by a brief emission of smoke. The driver of the transport vehicle reacted in an exemplary manner by remaining seated in the vehicle and thus preventing any further danger. Colleagues immediately alerted the emergency services.
Mild outcome
After around 30 minutes, the driver was able to leave the vehicle safely once the grid operator had disconnected the power supply. The Enns fire department, the police, the electricity supplier and the ambulance service were deployed. The situation was completely under control after around an hour and the emergency services were able to leave. No one was injured in the incident.
