MELITOPOL, September 2. /TASS/. A high-voltage 330kV power supply line, known as Ferrosplavnaya-1, which feeds the Zaporozhye Nuclear Power Plant (ZNPP) has been switched off automatically, the NPP’s official Telegram channel reported.
"The NPP relies on 750kV 'Dneprovskaya' power supply line for its own needs," the NPP said in a statement.
"Radiation levels at the power plant and the adjacent territory remains unchanged. The parameters are consistent with the normal operation of reactors, and do not exceed natural background radiation levels," the ZNPP reported.
