Electrical glitch in the US segment has been fixed, according to a NASA source.

The crew of the International Space Station has completely fixed the electrical glitch in the US segment that occurred late Tuesday night, a NASA source at the Mission Control outside Moscow said.

"A glitch in the convector's operation giving charges to the system of electrical energy for the American sector was found, which caused a break in a range of work for some systems.

"The crew completely repaired the glitch in two hours overnight and everything has been running fine since," the source told RIA Novosti.
