Communications System

With the development of wireless network technology, wireless communication is widely used in entertainment, business, factory and other fields. But, for those nuclear power plants which are currently in service, wireless technology did not get fully used, some even in unused condition. Actually, wireless communication system can be used to provide wireless connection between computer and mobile/portable devices, and provide access to LAN system; it also can be used to transmit video and data for cameras and sensors; it can realize wireless expansion of MAIN PABX system, so to meet all kinds of Wireless communication requirements in Nuclear Power Station.

Probabilistic Safety

Many probabilistic safety assessment studies completed to the date have demonstrated that the risk dealing with low power and shutdown operation of nuclear power plants is often comparable with the risk of at-power operation, and the main contributors to the low power and shutdown risk often deal with human factors. Since the beginning of the nuclear power generation, human performance has been a very important factor in all phases of the plant lifecycle: design, commissioning, operation, maintenance, surveillance, modification, decommissioning and dismantling. The importance of this aspect has been confirmed by recent operating experience. This paper provides the insights and conclusions of a workshop organized in 2007 by the IAEA and the Joint Research Centre of the European Commission, on Harmonization of low power and shutdown probabilistic safety assessment for WWER nuclear power plants. The major objective of the workshop was to provide a comparison of the approaches and the results of human reliability analyses and gain insights in the enhanced handling of human factors.

Abstract Domestic diesel-generator units of M310 reactor nuclear power plants at present adopt the French standard RCC-E 2005 emergency for periodic tests. During low-power periodic tests, the diesel-generators are not adequately protected, and there is a risk of serious damage to equipment. This article analyzes in detail the provisions of the IEEE 387 standard for the periodic tests of emergency diesel-generator unit, improves the periodic tests of the emergency diesel-generator unit according to the IEEE 387 standard, cancels the original low-power tests, and uses the test during the normal operation of the unit in order to solve this problem. The grid-connected test method and detailed analysis of the improved test content make the EDG periodic test method more economical and safe. The improvement has been approved by the nuclear safety regulatory agency, which provides an important reference for the related periodic test improvement of nuclear power plants.
