  • Abstract
    This paper describes the electric auxiliary-power systems in a sodium-cooled graphite-moderated nuclear reactor (SGR). Reliability requirements and methods of achieving them are discussed, and sodium-system preheating, a requirement unique to sodium-cooled reactors, is outlined. Nuclear instrumentation electric noise problems and methods of avoiding them are included. Auxiliary power requirements of a 360-mwe (electrical megawatt) SGR plant are compared with those of a similar conventional plant.
