"Give me the wire, and give me the wrench..." At 5 pm on August 19, near No. 89 Guoyan Street, Wuhou District, Chengdu, more than 10 employees of the power supply company wearing blue work clothes , Under the high temperature of 38 ℃, replace the low-voltage wire.
With the recent continuous high temperature in Sichuan, the pressure of power supply security has doubled. In order to ensure the electricity consumption of residents in high temperature weather, they continue to struggle in front-line jobs.
According to Wu Cong, deputy director of Yongfeng Power Supply Office of State Grid Chengdu High-tech Power Supply Company, since August, the number of emergency repair work orders received by the office has increased sharply, reaching more than 70 orders a day at most, an increase of 1.5 times compared with the same period last year. , the number of work orders is 2 to 3 times the average monthly repair work orders in the first half of this year.
Chengdu Business Daily-Red Star News reporters saw at the scene that there are mainly residential buildings near Guoyan Street. After the wires are connected from the transformer, they are distributed to each household from here.
More than 10 staff members at the scene divided their work and cooperated. Some stood on the ladder to remove the old wires, some were installing shelves for the wiring, and others were standing aside to sort out the wires.
"The high temperature has continued recently, and we have monitored that the wires in this area are overloaded. In order to ensure the electricity consumption of residents, today we will replace the wires with larger diameters for the residents." Wu Cong told reporters that the area involved more than 100 households. The overload of the line can easily cause the residential electrical appliances to fail to work normally, and in severe cases, the wires will be burned out.
After this replacement, the electricity consumption of nearby residents will be effectively guaranteed.
The reporter noticed that many of the staff at the scene rushed over from the last maintenance site.
It is understood that the Yongfeng Power Supply Business Office is responsible for the electricity consumption of 190,000 residents in the surrounding area. Since July, the processing work orders received by the business office have increased sharply.
"Recently, all the staff are in a state of rushing. Often the last point has just been repaired, and they need to rush to the next place." Wu Cong said that in the first half of the year, after 11 o'clock in the evening, basically no repair work orders will be received, but The recent emergency repair work will generally last until 6 am the next day.
The continuous high temperature weather is not only a test for the human body, but also a test for the power supply network.
Wu Cong suggested that everyone save electricity, set the air conditioner temperature above 27°C, and turn off unnecessary lights and electrical appliances.
