Description
Nuclear Electric operates four ''first generation'' Advanced Gas Cooled reactor stations; Hartlepool, Heysham 1, Hinkley Point B and Dungeness B. Each station has two reactor/turbine units which operate using the original data processing and control computers. At all sites, various peripheral devices such as VDUs and magnetic drums have been replaced by modern equipment. In addition, specific initiatives have been taken at each site to address obsolescence issues
