Among the thousands of structures, systems, and components (SSC) that comprise
a nuclear power plant, the component class relied upon most for protection, control,
monitoring, and supervision is instrumentation and control (I&C) components and
systems. A typical unit has approximately 10,000 sensors and detectors and 3,000
miles of instrumentation cables. In total, the mass of I&C components averages
approximately one thousand tons. Next to buildings and structures, I&C represents
the heaviest and most extensive infrastructure in any plant.
