Fire!!! (almost)

What will you do when u saw the lamp post is on fire like this?



then something like this will come out alternatively



This happen somewhere very near my house last week.
This is not the 1st time I experience this near my house. Previously it is just in front of my house, after some burning the cable will drop down and fell on the floor.



Besides the spark, we can also hear many sound effects and sometimes crackers sound can be heard. But we dare not pour water on it, wondering what will happen if we do so.



This is during the explosion. Once we saw this, we called the bomba and also TNB. We get experience from previous incident. If we don't call the TNB fast we will not have electricity for few hours.



This is what we can see after one hour after the call being made. 1st to arrive TNB just within 10 minutes, polis arrive within 20 minutes and the Bomba took 1 hour to reach here. Luckily the fire does not go worst. I have prepared the fire extinguisher, in case the cable dropped down to the ground.

Luckily no such thing happens this time.



Bomba watering the fire.

TNB have real high efficiency, the reach the scene fast and turn off the power supply fast. They also bring the cable here in a very short duration. They even change the cable when there are heavy rain and also thunder. The fixed the cable in any situation. Much better than what I expect.
