Wikipedia disagrees: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nuke

As do I, I personally have never heard someone refer to a nuclear fission power plant as a nuke, but I guess I don't hang around with the same people as you...

As i have posted here many times, i live very close to a nuclear power plant.

Everyone in the area simply calls it "the nuke plant".

It is a directional landmark : "yeah, so once you get to the nuke plant turn left...."

"Once you see the nuke plant you know you are getting close"..

Its full name is a mouth full : Pickering Nuclear Generating Station.

Citing wikipedia sometimes backfires.
