That may be so.  The cause of the Chernobyl accident was the running  of an 
unauthorised test that went wrong.  Ironically the test was to test  
emergency procedures due to loss of power to cooling pumps.
 
Harrisburg, Three Mile Island - something to do with the cooling  valves.
 
Fukishima - failure of the cooling system due to loss of back-up power when 
 the electricity failed.
 
 
Seems to me the common theme to all these nuclear accidents lies in the  
design and backups for the cooling system.

Chernobyl was poorly designed and badly  constructed.
