Research on Employing Optical Fiber Assemblies for Electrical Penetrations in Nuclear Power Plants
In order to solve the problem of lack of spare coaxial assemblies when introducing 5G signals into the Reactor Building of Qinshan 2nd Nuclear Power Plant Units 1 and 2,this article proposes a solution that involves using spare electrical penetrations and installing fiber optic assemblies to meet the requirements of 5G signal transmission.From the perspective of the influence of using the fiber optic assemblies on the sealing performance of the containment,this article analyzes the influence of this change on the safety of nuclear power plants.Relevant standards are cited to introduce the current application of fiber optic assemblies in domestic and foreign nuclear power plants,as well as the requirements for electrical penetration assemblies and conductor assemblies,and fiber optic assemblies in nuclear power plants.This article also explains the content and process of the qualification tests for fiber optic assemblies,providing experience for the installing of fiber optic assemblies in other nuclear power plants.
