Review of Paks outage results 1990

The year 1990 was not the most successful from an outage point of view at the Paks Nuclear Power Plant in Hungary -there were one or two long delays. Work at unit 4 had a delay of 10 days because of an error made during assembling the reactor vessel. While the outage of unit 3 was running, a feedwater pipe hanger problem was discovered - several hangers were found displaced from the right position. A general inspection of the affected system was required and this took about 11 days. Information about each outage is presented on diagrams, making comparison easier. These diagrams give information about deviations from the outage plan, about work hours performed during outages, and about collective exposure. (author)
