ABSTRACT:
A protection system such for a nuclear power plant shuts down the reactor in response to the detection of a negative flux rate characteristic of a dropped rod, but inhibits the trip if the specified negative flux rate is preceded within a selected time interval by a positive flux rate characteristic of a net load rejection when the moderation temperature coefficient is highly negative.
