CLP said it submitted the final report on the cable bridge fire incident to Pang Yiu-hung, the Director of Electrical and Mechanical Services, at about noon on Monday.

The fire had caused a massive blackout across New Territories West, and some 160,000 households were affected.

In the report, the power company gives an account of the fire's origin, the cause of the incident and the remedial measures. It believes the fire started near the entrance of Kwong Yip Street and was related to the low-voltage electrical installation nearby.

CLP said the remedial measures had been made at all its cable bridges, including installing additional fire-protection and fire-fighting devices and replacing all low-voltage electrical installations that may cause a fire.

Risk assessment on the relevant power transmission facilities is being conducted while contingency measures are being reviewed and drills are planned to be conducted.

The EMSD and independent third-party experts are reviewing the report in detail, evaluating whether the identified cause is well founded and remedial measures are appropriate. CLP will be requested to make clarifications or provide further information if needed.
