Radiation control immediately after the accident
Nearly 1 hour after the earthquake, tsunamis reached to the turbine buildings and also other buildings facing the sea depriving the function of the control system, and rendering many of the electronic alarm pocket dosimeters (APD) and dose reading devices unusable as they became submerged in seawater. Also, due to the increase of radiation and contamination levels in the power station site, preparation, distribution of APDs and recording of doses were performed in the Seismic Isolated Building.
