Another NYC Plant Catches Fire

LCG, July 30, 2002-The transformer at the 1,254 MW Astoria power station, owned by Reliant Resources, caught fire on Monday night at about 11:30.

The second transformer fire in New York City this month initially caused safety systems at the plant to shut down two generating units, although eventually all four units went off line. 5,000 Consolidated Edison customers lost electricity service for a few hours.

Electricity demand is expected to be very high in New York City this week because of high temperatures, and plant operators managed to bring all four units back on line in time for the afternoon's peak demand.

No injuries were reported, and a small amount of oil leaked into the East River.
