Chapter 286: Typhoon rages, Chu Yang shows his power
This morning, the company suddenly launched a level one wind and flood prevention warning.
Not surprised actually.
Because a few days ago, everyone already knew one thing.
According to the accurate information report from the city's meteorological station, Typhoon "Vera" is approaching Bula at a full speed of 120 kilometers per hour, and is expected to land in Xinhai City, Bula City in the early morning of the day after tomorrow.
It was reported that the central wind speed of Typhoon Vera reached a terrifying level 15, with gusts of level 16.
It can be said that wherever it goes, it destroys all the dead trees and leaves no grass growing.
Typhoons, a natural disaster, are what people living near the coast experience the most.
It is the most terrible enemy of the power company, without a doubt. Although the city of Bula is not directly close to the sea, it is not far from the sea. There are still many typhoons every year. Before this "Vera", there have been several "Gola" and "Qingla".
However, there are often loud thunder but little rain. When the typhoon is in the sea, the wind may be very strong, but it will generally weaken rapidly after making landfall. In addition, there are many mountains in Bula City, and after being blocked by many obstacles, the wind will be weakened and generally not too terrible.
But this time "Vera" is different. According to the weather forecast, it may make landfall in the nearest sea area, and after landing, it is likely to go straight to Bula, and the wind speed will not weaken much.
According to experience, a typhoon above level 8 will begin to affect the power lines in a place.
If "Vera" really arrives along the planned route this time, the central wind speed is expected to reach above level 12, with gusts of level 14. The consequences will be disastrous and the entire city may be paralyzed.
Mr. Li, president of the provincial company, issued instructions at the first opportunity, requiring all cities in the province affected by the typhoon to make every effort to prevent wind and floods, especially the city of Bula, where all employees must be mobilized to respond to Typhoon Vera.
We must reduce losses as much as possible, ensure power safety and stability, and ensure the safety of people's electricity use. We will reward those who have made contributions afterwards. Of course, if unnecessary losses are caused, the parties involved will also be held accountable.
At this point, all the companies in the city were treading on thin ice, and the city of Renbula was even more panicked. General Manager Tian did not dare to neglect it and quickly organized a meeting for all the cadres to discuss the matter. After a whole morning of discussion, they made important pre-typhoon deployments.
Although the meeting was tedious, it was considered a success.
A typhoon prevention team was established, with General Manager Tian as the team leader, General Manager Liang and General Manager Nie (Chairman of the Trade Union) as deputy team leaders, Chu Yang as the executive publisher, and other directors and institute directors as team members, each responsible for typhoon prevention preparations in their respective areas.
The meeting also formulated a 48-hour all-weather duty system for the future. All departments, power supply stations and substations will resume the system of having people on duty. The directors and stationmasters must keep their phones open 24 hours a day and urgently carry out wind and flood prevention inspections on important lines.
Especially for lines with relatively heavy loads, special supply preparations should be made in a timely manner.
Of course, all departments and units are on high alert, preparing rescue supplies and personal protective equipment, organizing emergency teams, and being ready to provide support at any time. They must also inform important users in advance and do their best to carry out emergency repairs and power restoration work after the typhoon.
Finally, Mr. Tian divided the lenders under the company's jurisdiction into four responsibility areas: southeast, northwest, northeast and southwest. Mr. Tian, Mr. Liang and Mr. Nie were each responsible for an area.
The last southern area, damn it, was given to Chu Yang.
How could I, Chu Yang, have such virtue and ability?
In other words , if any problems occur at the power supply stations or substations in the south, they will be responsible for it themselves.
Assigning responsibility to different areas is a complete way of passing the buck. These leaders are very smart.
Chu Yang could only pray that the typhoon would weaken after landing and not cause too many problems, otherwise it would be really troublesome. He estimated that as the director, even three heads and six arms would not be enough.
The first day was relatively good, with calm weather, but everyone knew that this was the calm before the storm.
But no one dared to relax.
Chu Yang took Sister Hua and Xiao Jiao to several places to check the implementation of wind and flood prevention measures, and asked them to report to him as soon as possible if anything happened and not to hide anything.
The next morning, it started to rain.
But the rain was not heavy, it just kept on going up and down.
The wind started to blow in the afternoon. Chu Yang kept paying attention to the movement of the typhoon. He did not dare to stay in the company and continued to visit the area he was responsible for. He inspected the wind and flood prevention work tirelessly and held several emergency plan meetings, basically ensuring that everything was foolproof.
At night, it started to rain over a large area, with strong winds, lightning and thunder. The wind outside began to howl, and the rain hit the windows, making a crackling sound, which was very scary.
Chu Yang stayed in the office the whole time and didn't dare to go anywhere because Mr. Tian and Mr. Liang were also on standby at the company. At seven o'clock in the evening, the wind continued to increase and the lines in the north and west areas tripped one after another.
Zhiying sent over a midnight snack from somewhere.
Chu Yang was deeply moved.
He even kissed her secretly.
She ran away shyly, and their department also had to be on duty.
At 12 o'clock in the evening, the wind began to blow hard, sand and stones flew everywhere, and the trees turned into monsters, baring their fangs and claws.
Bad news also came from the south. Three substations began to collapse across the board. All 10kV load lines were wiped out. The substations were all green. Chu Yang kept receiving calls reporting the incident, and the demands of the residents below were increasing.
The situation is not optimistic.
Chu Yang couldn't sit still any longer, so he called the driver and went to Xinglong Substation in person. Everyone was moved to see Chu Yang coming. It was not easy for the leader to come in such weather.
Moreover, they were now extremely anxious and at a loss. After Chu Yang arrived, he directly issued a death order, requiring that the 220kV Xing'an Line must be kept in normal operation at all costs.
Chu Yang's strategy was to sacrifice the small for the big, and first concentrate manpower and material resources to clear the way for the 220kV Xing'an Line. Because Chu Yang had looked at the operation mode of the power grid here, he knew that the 220kV Xing'an Line was the only main supply line for the southern area. As long as it did not fall, the others would be minor matters.
If the 220kV Xing'an Line collapses, the southern area will be completely wiped out.
The comrades who were like headless flies suddenly found a backbone, knew what to do, and immediately did it according to the instructions.
At 3 a.m., the 220kV Xing'an Line still issued a line over-limit alarm. Chu Yang responded immediately and asked the operating personnel to exit the line reclosing function and minimize the line tripping time.
In this way, even if a fault occurs, the switch can be tripped immediately to ensure that the circuit is not burned.
Ten minutes later, the line protection function was activated and the 220kV Xing'an Line 2245 switch was tripped.
The entire southern area was wiped out.
Stationmaster Li of the 220kV Xinglong Station had an unpleasant look on his face and felt bad. The other staff members also sighed and wailed, thinking that everything was in vain. However, Chu Yang was not panicked. He still stood calmly by the window, watching the heavy rain outside hitting the window.
Silently pay attention to the changes in wind direction and wind speed.
Stationmaster Li came over and said solemnly, "Director Chu, it still hasn't been saved. What should we do now? Should we ask the dispatcher to turn on the switch and try?"
Chu Yang hesitated for a moment and said, "Don't worry. Wait half an hour and try to close it again. If you close it now, it will probably jump again. It will take time for the typhoon to pass. Also, have Huang's people withdraw first. The wind is too strong at this time and the people are in danger. Don't cause unnecessary casualties."
Humans are so vulnerable in the face of nature.
Stationmaster Li quickly went to make arrangements.
Half an hour later, the wind outside had indeed weakened.
Chu Yang ordered to close the 220kV Xing'an Line 2245 switch. Finally, the background displayed that the switch was closed successfully. Everyone cheered and breathed a sigh of relief.
At this moment the entire city of Bra.
Only the main power supply lines in the southern area were restored, and a little light was restored.
In contrast, the company's other east, west and north areas were still shrouded in darkness.
