Description

The Basis Safety Concept (BSC) mandatory in Germany for pressure-retaining components in nuclear power plants provides a significant contribution towards improving plant availability. The use of tough materials with good welding properties satisfies basis safely requirements much in the same way as, being the result of process optimization, the application of narrow-gap welding for butt welds and of pulsed TIG welding for the tube to tube-sheet joints in steam generators of pressurized-water reactors
