  Great headline, but not much of a story. A transformer apparently exploded in an area of the compound that doesn't do anything nuclear. We covered this in Utility Dive on Monday: http://www.utilitydive.com/news/fire-sparks-shutdown-at-entergy-nuclear-plant/203887/ http://www.utilitydive.com/news/fire-sparks-shutdown-at-ente...

  Obviously I'll be glad for a few more details of this incident, but as far as I can tell, two days ago a electric transformer went pop. The only reason this has appeared on HN is because of the magic "nuclear" word, even though the fire happened outside the nuclear area of the site.
