ABSTRACT:
A system for determining the relative positions of control rods within a nuclear reactor is disclosed. When the position signal associated with the highest control rod in a group exceeds the position signal associated with the lowest control rod in the same group by more than a predetermined limit, an alarm and a fault indicator are activated.
