Tokyo, March 15: The operation of all 4 reactors at the quake-stricken Fukushima No.2 nuclear power plant has been brought to a halt, Japanese TV NHK reported.
Tokyo Electric Power Company says the 4th reactor at the No.2 plant was safely brought to a stop at around 7:00 AM(10.30 IST) on Tuesday.
It also says the reactor's temperature dropped below 100 degrees Celsius after its cooling function was restored. The reactor's cooling system was damaged in Friday's massive earthquake and ensuing tsunami.
The operation of the other 3 reactors at the Fukushima No.2 plant was earlier suspended. Two of the reactors were unable to cool down for some time due to tsunami damage.
