Actually if they would have followed the rules 3 mile island would be just another nuclear power plant.
The reactor that melted down had its backup cooling system disabled for maintenance. Which is against the rules.
You don't disable the backup coolant system on a reactor that's producing power.
IF they would have followed the rules the reactor would have shut down, the backup cooling system would have kicked in, got repaired and been running a few weeks later.
