Abstract
In 1993, two steam generators were replaced in a single run within onl y 44 days at the Beznau Nuclear Power Station. Already in 1971 it had been necessary to plug up heating tubes. For replacement, the outer an d the inner concrete cylinders of the containment together with the pr otective shield had to be opened. Radiation exposure of the personnel was kept low throughout the entire replacement work, the total dose re maining below 1100 mSv.
