A woman has died and nine others sustained injuries after a 33 KV power line insulator broke in Kota, leading to the spread of electric current.
In a tragic incident in Kota, a woman lost her life and nine individuals were injured when a 33 KV power line insulator malfunctioned. The failure of the insulator caused electric current to spread, resulting in the casualties.
According to Xen Ashish Johri, such incidents involving insulator failures are not uncommon during the monsoon season. The location of the accident is described as a rocky area surrounded by houses, which facilitated the spread of the current and led to an earth fault.
The incident highlights the potential dangers associated with electrical infrastructure, particularly in challenging weather conditions and densely populated areas.
