AMS provided a detailed design for a replacement hard wired fire alarm system for Hinkley Point B Nuclear Power Station. The previous hardwired fire alarm system used solid state relays (circa 1975) which were obsolete and no spares are available. Failures within the system could have resulted in the manual shutdown of a reactor.
