On 13 November, 2017, the last pre-launch targeted comprehensive inspection of the Federal Environmental, Industrial and Nuclear Supervision Service of Russia (Rostekhnadzor) has been started at Rostov NPP power unit No 4.

It will last until 20 November. The inspectors will check the Plant in several areas: staff readiness, system readiness, and unit readiness.

The positive conclusion of Rostekhnadzor’s targeted commission will mean the power unit’s complete readiness to the beginning of the physical launch stage, i.е. to loading the assemblies with nuclear fuel into the reactor.

Currently, in accordance with the physical start-up preparation plan for a power unit, the specialists of Atomtekhenergo OJSC and the curators of the customer service of Rostov NPP carry out an audit of the main and auxiliary equipment of the reactor unit’s primary and secondary circuits at the power unit No 4. As part of the audit, we are preparing the system safety trains for putting into operation.
