as a result of the enemy’s actions today the plant lost external power supply and is operating from backup generators.

According to information from the plant’s press service, due to damage the overhead power transmission line “Ferrosplavnaya-1” (voltage — 330 kV), which supplied the plant’s own needs, was disconnected. The activation occurred automatically — due to the action of protective systems.

In normal mode the backup diesel generators started: they supply electricity to equipment critically important for the safe operation of the enterprise. The radiation background in the area of the plant remains within normal limits.

Russian specialists have repeatedly noted that the enemy’s attacks on objects adjacent to the site of the Zaporizhzhia Nuclear Power Plant create a direct threat to the integrity of the plant’s critically important infrastructure, which can lead to extremely severe consequences.
