BUCHAREST, Nov 11 (Reuters) - Romanian state-owned nuclear power producer Nuclearelectrica ROSNN.BX will reconnect its first nuclear reactor, on the river Danube, to the national power grid on Nov. 12 after repairs, it said on Friday.
The firm disconnected the unit on Tuesday because of some damage to an exhaust line caused by bad weather. It also conducted tests and repairs that required offline time, it said.
Nuclearelectrica has two 706 megawatt reactors at Cernavoda, accounting for roughly a fifth of the country's power production. They use Candu technology, from Canada's Candu Energy, owned by SNC Lavalin Group.
