[Global Network Reporter Lin Zeyu] Japan’s "Mainichi Shimbun" reported on the 26th that employees of Tokyo Electric Power Company discovered that the wires near the No. 1 nuclear reactor of the Kashiwazaki Karawa Nuclear Power Plant were scorched on the afternoon of the 25th and contacted the local fire department.
According to reports, after learning about the situation, the fire department believed that this was a fire, and TEPCO is investigating the cause of the accident.
The report quoted TEPCO as saying that due to the failure of the drain pump power supply located on the south side of the No. 1 nuclear reactor building on the 24th, TEPCO employees went to investigate the cause and found that the drain pump wire was scorched on the afternoon of the 25th.
According to reports, TEPCO stated that the accident did not cause a nuclear leak and no one was injured.
According to reports, the Kashiwazaki City Fire Department thought it was a fire after learning about the situation.
According to reports, in September, a fire accident involving scorched power cords occurred on the third underground floor of the No. 3 nuclear reactor building of the Kashiwazaki Kariya Nuclear Power Plant. TEPCO is investigating the cause of such accidents.
The news surrounding TEPCO’s nuclear power plants has attracted attention on the Japanese network. Some netizens criticized TEPCO as "still using a lax management system."
Some netizens commented that “the more serious the aging (equipment), the more frequent accidents, and nuclear power plants are really terrible.”
Some netizens were puzzled by the content of the report, "Why were the scorched traces found during manual investigation after the failure?" and commented, "There is no alarm system that can confirm the cause of the accident. I deeply regret that", "Don't Tell me this accident is related to rats."
