Investigation on scram events caused by I and C faults and human failures in nuclear power stations
Description
72 scram events in the nuclear power stations in China are classified in this paper, with focus on the analysis of the scram events caused by I and C faults and human failures. The result demonstrates that the phantom signal, control unit malfunction, parameter unmerited and control valve malfunction are the first cause for instrument control equipment failure. Preventive solutions are proposed. (author)
