English term or phrase: local readings of high reactor pressure
A team that was later dispatched to the reactor building confirmed that the isolation condenser was not operating, as indicated by the local readings of high reactor pressure.


Does it mean that local readings say that reactor pressure is high?

yes
Explanation:
That's right: the readings were 'local' because they were actually in the reactor building (i.e. 'local' to the problem), rather than 'remote' readings in (say) some central control room
