Abstract
The development of integrated digital Instrumentation and Control (I & C) systems for Advanced Pressurized Water Reactor (APWR) and Advanced Boiling Water Reactor (ABWR) have been promoted to meet the requirements for increased reliability, enhanced operability and maintainability. The systems integrate state-of-the-art technologies for man-machine interface, digital plant control and protection, optical multiplexing signal transmission and ergonomics. The systems have been systematically built on the hierarchically distributed architecture. This paper describes the design philosophy and the features of the integrated digital I & C systems for APWR and ABWR, focusing on improved man machine interface and newly developed digital systems for plant control and protection.
