00:00Due to the bad weather, a cable of the LRT-2 that supplies electricity was cut off and cut off.
00:09Sandra Aguinaldo's last campaign to stop it.
00:18Quiet and without passengers on the platform of Gilmore Station at 9.44 p.m.
00:24Suddenly, the cables suddenly sparkled.
00:31According to the LRT-2's operator, there was a short circuit and it went through the so-called catenary wire
00:38that supplies electricity to the train.
00:42The result, the cable was cut off.
00:46Fortunately, the last train that passed by was already in Cubaona.
00:51No one was injured in the incident.
00:54We can see that there were a lot of sparks that flashed outside the station.
00:59At that moment, the outside of the station suddenly lit up and the inside of the station suddenly exploded.
01:07We witnessed that the power surge, the sparks in the cable.
01:15I know that sometimes, if the system can't handle the power, it can spark or melt.
01:28But don't worry, these days, the weather is often bad.
01:32Our system is safe because the whole system has a lighting arrester.
01:37Aside from the lighting arrester, the train also has a mechanism to protect it from the outside.
01:43Our system has a third safety measure, our trains.
01:48If the pantograph goes down, you can see that above the train, there are two antennas.
01:54It has an automatic scheme.
01:58If a high power supply is detected, it will go down so that the power surge will not continue.
02:10According to the LRTA, the cable was fixed immediately so the first trip this morning was not affected.
02:16For GMA Integrated News, Sandra Aguinaldo reporting for 24 Hours.
