Long-term power loss not foreseen in nuclear guidelines | The Japan Times Online

Submitted by RIJS on
Item Description
Design guidelines for nuclear plants do not require that utilities take steps against long-term power loss, according to rules published in 1990 and obtained by The Japan Times. The apparent lapse was based on the assumption that in case of an emergency, electricity would be quickly restored or backup power would suffice.
