; ;

The application of data transmission via fiber optic cables was demonstrated for a utility plant instrumentation system at the Bergen Generating Station. The fiber optic system (FOS) was designed, fabricated, and tested by E-Systems, Inc., Greenville Division, located in Greenville, Texas, using commercially available components. Plastic fiber optic cables were evaluated for short run applications up to 140 ft and glass fiber optic cables were evaluated for long run applications up to 1330 ft. The FOS and fiber optic cables were installed, operated, and maintained with technical input from E-Systems, Inc. The demonstration was conducted over a ten month period.
