The backups can only do so much. If you take 5\6 off line to cool 3\4, the 5\6 overheats. It’s not as simple as just running an extention cord to your neighbors house.

I looked up the old posts from last week. The gen-sets were knocked out, but the reactors were in cold shutdown for maintenance so they didn't need the additional cooling.
