Hermetic cable penetrations for 3rd generation NPP (18.1.2021 )
Hermetic cable penetrations have been manufactured at Kabex for almost 20 years. As you can see in the picture - they are gradually evolving and improving. This evolution shows how the safety requirements for the operation of nuclear power units have been increased over the last 20 years.
The first prototypes of Kabex's hermetic penetrations were designed for a wall thickness of 400 mm. Today we supply penetrations 1.20-1.50 meters long for nuclear power plants in operating. For a construction of new 3rd generation NPPs we have developed a penetration that passes through the double containment wall and forms a product, which is over 4 meters long. This is the result of implementation of a large number of safety measures based on experience with the operation of nuclear power units operating worldwide.
