ID: reactor-protection-system

The Reactor Protection System (RPS) is a critical safety feature in nuclear power plants designed to ensure the safe operation of the reactor. Its primary functions include monitoring reactor conditions and initiating automatic safety measures during abnormal situations or potential accidents. Key components and functions of the RPS include: 1. **Monitoring**: The RPS continuously monitors various parameters such as reactor core temperature, pressure, coolant levels, and neutron flux levels to ensure that the reactor operates within safe limits.
