Looks like it was the right move, for the Prime Minister to order standard safety stress tests of all nuke plant in Japan.  The Tokai Daini nuclear plant in Ibaraki Prefecture has failed earthquake safety tests for its electronic equipment.

The amazing thing is that the earthquake safety standards for Tokai Daini were created by the very company that runs the nuclear plant.

The Japanese Nuclear and Industrial Safety Agency says many of the nuclear plants in eastern Japan are failing their own earthquake safety standards for their electrical equipment.  In one case it was discovered that the metal frames holding electric motors were made of such inferior metal that they could be easily broken by twisting.  The agency also says they still don’t know the true reason why the electrical systems at the damaged Fukushima Daiichi nuclear plant failed.
