Project Name:  Leibstadt             Customer: KKL Leibstadt

Location: Leibstadt, Switzerland         Equipment: 1200 MW H2 cooled BBC Generator   

My latest assignment brought me to a nuclear plant in Leibstadt, Switzerland.

After a core failure the generator was completely dismantled and repairs were carried out during 5 months.

I was asked to join the repair and re-assembly efforts.

Below some pictures from the media.

Here's the generator in assembled condition.

The generator dismantled for inspection.
