d) circumstances under which there was emergency, including circuit, regime and weather conditions;

e) the name of the switched-off equipment of object on which there was emergency;

e) the key technical parameters of the equipment (thermal power, steam generating capacity of object on which there was emergency);

g) data about not included after emergency (conclusion in repair, dismantle) the equipment of object on which there was emergency;

h) the reason of shutdown, damage and (or) overload of the equipment of object on which there was emergency (in the presence of such information);
