The most dangerous place to work is in a power plant...things can get mighty nasty fast. It doesn’t matter whether it a coal, gas or nuclear. when dealing with steam, and all the extra equipment tho supply the prime mover with steam, and just one component malfunctions, every thing must shut down on
that unit. the turbine will slow down to a slow roll to keep the shaft from warping.

I've done work in power plants and refineries/petrochemical plants.

I don't agree.
