Seismic Vulnerability Assessment of Site-Vicinity Infrastructure for Supporting the Accident Management of a Nuclear Power Plant
Table 1
Failure modes and approximate failure probability for elements of low voltage distribution system in the considered region.
| ā | Failure modes | Probability |
| Poles | Shear | Low | Flexural | Medium | Foundation failure (due to insufficient bearing capacity of loose Holocene alluvium and liquefaction) | High |
| Overhead lines | Break | Low | Short-cut | Low |
| Mounted on poles equipment (transformers) | Anchorage/fitting failures | High |
