Preferred Engineering developed several types of Hot / Cold Leg Loop Plugs. These Plugs are normally used during the performance of nozzle inspections. The installation of the Loop Plugs allows the scheduled steam generator work to proceed during the completion of the balance of the nozzle ISI work. The result is a 5 to 7 day reduction in critical path time. The Plugs are installed in pairs and can be installed in approximately 2 hours. The Plugs are hydraulically actuated and mechanically locked in place. We have extensive "Large Plug" experience and have engineered and manufactured over 60 plugs 16 inches in diameter or larger.
