​Deputy chief Charles Mabaso, public information and liaison officer for the City of Tshwane Emergency Services, said, “The Tshwane Emergency Services Department received a call about an electricity substation that was on fire in Eastlyn at approximately 12h14 on Friday, 16 June 2023.
 
“Fire fighting resources from two fire stations were dispatched to the incident.  Fire fighters managed to extinguish the substation fire as soon as utility services switched of the power supply and rendering if safe to start with fire fighting operations. The fire has been extinguished and fire fighters were busy with cooling operations at the time of reporting:, said Mabaso.
 
He said, “The Electricity Department will conduct an assessment to determine which areas will be affected, as well as the expected timelines for the repairs.”
 
“It is suspected that the course of the fire might be a grass fire in the vicinity of the substation. Further fire cause determination activities will be carried out by fire safety and law enforcement agencies”, added Mabaso.
