  • Abstract
    This paper reports the testing of a Class IE AC Motor Control Center, which was subjected to high temperature/humidity environment and pressure pulses. The test programs, simulating the effects of a high-energy steam line break in a BWR Mark I Containment nuclear power plant, are described. The motor control center functioned satisfactorily during and after the test.
