AREVA has received confirmation of the acceptance by its customer CGN for the Instrumentation & Control (I&C) system that has been supplied and installed at the units 3 and 4 of the Ling Ao nuclear power plant in China.
The TELEPERM® XS I&C system has operated flawlessly since the reactors 3 and 4 have been connected to the electrical grid, following commissioning in September 2010 and August 2011 respectively. At the end of the two-year testing period, CGN has confirmed the formal acceptance of this I&C system.
TELEPERM® XS is a cutting-edge safety system, adapted to nuclear I&C applications requiring the highest level of safety guarantees. It is used in various applications in nuclear power plants: reactor protection, control and limitation, neutron flow measurement, core monitoring, control-rod position control and monitoring, and emergency diesel generator safety control. The TELEPERM® XS technology has been supplied to or is currently being installed at 81 reactors in 16 countries.
