Best Answer

Loss Of Offsite Power (LOOP). This results in load rejection by the turbine, and a trip and isolation of the reactor. Emergency Core Cooling System (ECCS) starts up, followed by the diesel generators, which brings the heatsink back. After a few minutes or seconds, offsite power is generally restored, and we stabilize and come back up with no problems.

If its a short term transient LOOP - less than 10 seconds - the diesel generators won't generally even take the load.

The word "crises" in this context is a misnomer - the plant is designed to handle a LOOP - its really a non problem - its more properly just called an event.
