  • Abstract
    Experience indicates that periodic modification to personnel interlock system operating procedures (nuisance modifications) increase user awareness. A modular interlock system which permits easy modification of the forced inspection sequence has been designed and installed at the RPI Accelerator Laboratory. The system provides for forced area inspection within specified time periods. Audible signals alert workers when the inspection is in progress.
