Two crews from Aylesbury attended an incident involving power cables on fire beneath a transformer

The fire had been extinguished using a dry powder extinguisher by UK Power Networks prior to the arrival of firefighters.

Crews confirmed the electricity supply had been isolated and worked with partners to ensure the area was made safe.

Firefighters established cordons and used a thermal imaging camera to monitor temperatures and check for any remaining hotspots. One wooden pylon was damaged by the fire.

Crews remained on scene to carry out further safety checks before leaving.
