Abstract

In view of the problem that the lightning protection terminal of the stack air flowmeter (DVN001/002MD) of the nuclear auxiliary plant in a certain nuclear power station is easily damaged by lightning, the actual situation is analysed, and the Reform measures of lightning protection device are put forward to solve the problem of the flash alarm of the KCS cabinets in the lightning strike, to improve the anti-lightning interference ability of the stack air flow signal and to reduce the risk of shutdown due to the lightning signal, resulting in burnout of KCS cabinets and interference signal.
