Nuclear Power Plant Safety Systems - Part 4: Containing radiation 

This CNSC video series explains the main safety systems of Canadian nuclear power plants. Part 4 presents the main systems involved to ensure radiation is contained, both during normal operation and in the unlikely event of an accident. The containment layers discussed include the fuel pellets, fuel rods, pressure tubes and calandria and the reactor building. All of these systems are maintained and inspected regularly, and upgraded when necessary, to ensure plants meet or exceed strict safety standards established by the CNSC.
