Abstract

There is provided a device for monitoring an operation of a nuclear plant, including: a functional integration VDU having a regular-use-system VDU that monitors the operation of the plant under normal conditions, and a security-system VDU that leads to a safe state when the plant is in an abnormal state; and a security-system VDU that leads to a safe state when the plant is in an abnormal state. The functional integration VDU is mounted to a first operating console, the security-system VDU is mounted to a second operating console, and thereby an increase in the size of the operating consoles in the nuclear plant is suppressed, and increased ease of operation is enabled.
