Here’s an update on last night’s manhole explosions on East Broadway (near Samuel Dickstein Plaza). We just got off the phone with Con Edison spokeswoman D. Joy Faber, who said workers are making repairs on corroded electrical cables today and continuing to investigate exactly what caused the blasts.  She said it was not a transformer explosion (that’s what firefighters suspected last night). Instead, Faber said, it appears to be a more straightforward case of electrical cables having been corrupted by salt used during the snow storm (the investigation will hopefully confirm this hypothesis). The phenomenon is fairly common in the city each winter. The salt eats away at and then burns the cables’ insulation, releasing flammable gases. Sometimes, but not always, explosions are the result.
