Description
The articles in this dossier, extracted from the papers of a conference organized by the French nuclear energy society, deal with commissioning and operation of N4-type nuclear power plants, whose power (1450 MWe) is the highest among the NPPs connected to the grid in France. Following a short history of their creation, their performance data and main features are described. (authors)
