TEPCO reports error at Kashiwazaki-Kariwa nuclear plant
Tokyo Electric Power Company Holdings (Tepco) said Saturday that an alert system did not work during a test operation held the day prior as part of the restart of the No. 6 reactor at its Kashiwazaki-Kariwa nuclear plant in Niigata Prefecture. The company is working to identify the cause of the problem, but failure to resolve it soon may affect its plan to restart the reactor on Tuesday. According to Tepco, the problem was confirmed at 12:36 p.m., and it stopped the test operation. The alert system is designed to activate when a control rod is being pulled out of the reactor while another rod is already out. The Kashiwazaki-Kariwa reactor would be the first of Tepco's nuclear reactors to be restarted since the March 2011 accident at its tsunami-crippled Fukushima No. 1 nuclear plant.
