In recent days, the IAEA team observed the ongoing maintenance of the main electrical transformer components of reactor unit No. 3, which were disassembled for maintenance.
It is reported that after completion of the maintenance, tests will be carried out to ensure the transformer's performance before it is returned to operation.
The IAEA experts also observed scheduled maintenance activities in the reactor hall and nuclear auxiliary building of Unit 6. They did not report any nuclear safety or security issues.
However, it is noted that during the visit to the turbine hall of the same block, the group was again denied access to its western part.
