Commissioning a Major Retro Fit in an Existing Nuclear Power Station

摘要

The low pressure emergency core injection (ECI) system at Bruce NGS 'A' is being replaced by a new high pressure system. The new system is similar to that being installed in the Bruce NGS 'B' plant which is scheduled to start up later this year. The new system at Bruce NGS 'A' will be connected to Unit 4 in April 1984, and the other units will be converted at six monthly intervals. Commissioning activities are well under way and it is apparent that there are significant differences between commissioning a major retro fit in an existing station, compared with commissioning a whole new project.
