Headings HlN and HIT. Instead of the usual limiting resistor a diverter switch for an on-load transformer tap-changer is provided with a spark gap 13 in shunt with the closing contacts 11, 12, such that the arc at opening contacts 10, 12 is transferred to the gap 13 while the switch changes over from a step A to step B of a regulating transformer Tr (tap selector omitted from drawing for clarity). The electrodes of gap 13 are arc-resistant with large contact surfaces arranged with adjustable spacing such that the gap withstands the normal step voltage but breaks down upon voltage transients due to the arc drawn at contacts 10, 12, which is thus extinguished within one cycle without undue acceleration of contact 12. A switch 16 enables gap 13 to be used for the reverse operation of the diverter switch.

The deposition of solids from the coolantofareactor on to the fuel elements is measured by measuring the temperature drop occurring across the jacket of a special fuel element, this special fuel element being constructed so that the heat flux at its surface is the same as that of a normal fuel element. The special fuel element consists of an enriched fissionable core 1 of uranium, uranium or plutonium alloys, uranium oxide, mixtures of uranium and plutonium oxides, or cermets of UO 2  or PuO 2  in stainless steel. Heavy cladding 3 has a microscopic capture crosssection for neutrons in the range 1-40 barns and may be of stainless steel, nickel, nickelcobalt alloys or titanium.

Three grooves 15 spaced at 120 degrees in the periphery of the cladding 3 receive thermocouples 17 having wires extending through seals 21. The coolant temperature is measured by other means (not shown), the difference between that temperature and the temperature recorded by the thermocouples giving an indication of the degree of solids deposited on the fuel elements. Beta flux which also affects the deposition of solids from the coolant may be produced in the special fuel element by placing a thin foil of silver or rhodium between the cladding 3 and the jacket 9.
