Zaporizhzhia Nuclear Plant Maintains Normal Operations Amid Power Line Switch
The Zaporizhzhia nuclear power plant in Russian-controlled Ukraine is operating normally after an automatic system shut off a high-voltage line. The plant, which relies on external power for reactor stability and safety, is now receiving power from an alternate high-voltage line, according to Russia's Rosatom nuclear company.

The Zaporizhzhia nuclear power plant in the Russian-controlled part of Ukraine is operating normally after its automatic systems switched off one high-voltage line, Russia's Rosatom nuclear company said on Friday.
The dormant plant relies on external power to maintain the stability and safety of its reactors. Rosatom confirmed that power was being supplied via another high-voltage line, ensuring no interruption in the plant's operation.
This incident underscores the importance of robust external power supplies for nuclear facilities, especially those located in conflict zones.
