There is approximately 50 lb of pure hydrogen in the generator to cool it. Well, yeah, I didn't know they used that much, but I knew they kept positive pressure to keep air out.
But compared to the turbine housing... inlet steam at ~3000 psi (at least for fossil fuel plants) it's almost negligible.

Does anyone have an opinion on possible contributing personnel issues, subcontractors potentially not aware of processes, procedures or pratfalls or old-timers retiring to deplete the knowledge base?
