Research on the Application of Human Factors Engineering in the Physical Protection System of Nuclear Facilities

In the past few years, human-caused failures have occurred frequently at the nuclear power plant, such as the wrong forcing of signals, the wrong interval, and improper operation. They all have directly produced serious consequences. In the physical protection system, security personnel misoperations occurred in multiple projects, resulting in varying degrees of damage to the equipment. Therefore, how to effectively improve the reliability and effectiveness of the civil air defense of the physical protection system becomes particularly important. This article uses Human Factors Engineering to realize the optimization of the physical protection system in terms of environmental design, work area layout, equipment maintenance space and alarm management, so that security personnel can improve work efficiency in a comfortable environment, and achieve the best between man, machine and environment.
