At 1:15 pm on March 18, Fan Xiaoguang, director of the control center of the Qingyuan District Power Supply Company in Baoding, Hebei Province, grabbed the car keys and ran out after answering the phone. What's so urgent? When he arrived at Li Bazhuang Village in Qingyuan District, his heart suddenly rose to his throat.: There is a woman sitting on the top of Tower 17 of the 220 kV Dengxi Line, and she may fall down at any time. The top of the tower was more than 20 meters above the ground. The woman's family cried and dissuaded her from the bottom of the tower, and the rescuers who arrived also began to prepare for rescue. After communicating with the rescuers, Fan Xiaoguang learned that they wanted to use a large crane to rescue the woman, but were worried about getting an electric shock. Fan Xiaoguang immediately reported the situation to the control center of Baoding Power Supply Company. Human lives were at stake. After receiving the notice, the control center made an immediate decision to switch the 220 kV Dengxi Line from operation to maintenance and activate the backup line for power supply. At the same time, personnel were arranged to rush to the scene quickly and take safety precautions under towers No. 16 and No. 18 to avoid induction of electric shock... At around 4 p.m., with the cooperation of the public security, fire department and power supply company, the woman who committed suicide was successfully rescued. (Gan Ruiyan)
