The reactor vessel head is not yet in place, so the tests are not being carried out at normal operating temperatures and pressures.<\/p>\n<p>The tests will, however, verify that the joints between the 320-tonne vessel and attached pipelines are watertight and provide an opportunity to test the cooling system. These tests are expected to take almost four weeks to complete, after which final assembly of the reactor will be completed and further pre-operational tests conducted.<\/p>\n<p>Chief engineer at the Rostov plant Alexei Zhukov said, \u201cThe next stage will be testing the water tightness of the piping systems of four accumulators for the emergency cooling system, then then safety system pipes and so on. All this brings us to the launch of the third unit\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>Four 1000\u00a0MWe VVER pressurized water reactors have been planned at the Rostov site (formerly known as Volgodonsk) since the early 1980s.
