Abstract :
This paper provides an update to the databank of results from the radiation testing of CCTV cameras for use in radiation environments associated with the nuclear power industry. Ten modern cameras have been tested using a standard methodology. Updates to the methodology are described and the results of the tests are summarised and compared with those obtained in the previous round of testing in the 1990´s.
