Abstract

The analog typed interface of main control room in nuclear power plant (NPP) is gradually being replaced to the one suitable for the digital environment. SKN 3,4 Nuclear Power Plant is currently developed in such a way to employ digitalized displays and controls such as computerized procedure system(CPS), large display panel(LDP), and Soft control. The main control room (MCR) of the SKN3,4 was designed based on the human factors guidelines, which somehow lack of the confidence for the rapidly changing digital environment. The suitable review guideline for the digitalized information displays was developed with an extension to the total digital environment including task environment, hardware and workstation. For the guideline development, tremendous guidelines and technical papers related to evaluation issues of digital environment has been collected, analyzed and transformed to electric database forms and then built on database management system to retrieve the appropriate issues for the practical usage of evaluators-in-field.
