Commitment for the Florianijünger in the municipality of Gaimberg in East Tyrol on Wednesday! The transmitter of a cell phone provider caught fire. When the fire brigade arrived, they could only see a slight development of smoke. No one was injured in the incident.
According to the police, the fire started at 1.40 p.m. The transmitter system of a mobile phone provider, which was installed on an overhead line mast with a 380kV line, was affected. “The volunteer fire brigade Gaimberg moved out with two emergency vehicles and a total of 20 men, but could not find any relevant fire on site, but found a slight smoke development”, say the investigators. The cause of the fire is presumably a technical defect in the isolating transformer. “Restrictions on cell phone reception in the Gaimberg area and above the Zettersfeld valley station are to be expected,” it says. The damage will be repaired as quickly as possible. No one was injured as a result of the incident, and there was property damage of an as yet unknown amount.
