The computerized plant maintenance expert system

Probably the most critical aspect of nuclear power plant operation is plant maintenance. Rapid and efficient performance of maintenance activities is essential to ensure maximum plant availability at the required high level of plant safety. Any delays in maintenance activities could result in reduced generating capacity or an extended plant outage, both at substantial cost to the plant operator. More importantly, technical decisions made in an effort to minimize schedule impact, but without the proper expertise, could compromise plant safety.
