Details, details. Look what is being hooked up, building for reactor #2. Number 2 building is LEAST damaged of #1, #2, or #3. #3 and #4 are the main concerns and the damage to those may be too severe to repair even if they have electricity. If pumps, wiring, controls, etc were damaged by explosion, the only way to fix would be for a technician to go in and repair. That is not possible with the high levels of radiation in #3 and #4

yeah, the restart of electric power may be more useful in powering improvised solutions such as electric pumps outside the reactors and water cannons. It’s questionable whether pumps and valves inside some of the reactors will still work.

But, but, but I thought the new motto was 'don't worry, be happy'...
