Abstract
This paper describes the controls and instrumentation for the Susquehanna Steam Electric Station (SSES), which is under construction for Pennsylvania Power & Light Co. (PP&L), Allentown, Pennsylvania, USA. The SSES is a two-unit boiling water reactor (BWR) station — each unit has a rated output of 1100 MWe.Of particular interest is the advanced control room featuring computer- driven displays with resultant reduction in the number and size of conventional controls and instrumentation. The principal design goal is for improved operability through the application of human engineering factors developed over the past several years. Successful execution of the advanced control room design and manufacture is centered in a team effort among the owner, the architect-engineer, and the NSSS manufacturer.
