POWER SUPPLY OF THE COMPLEX OF ENGINEERING AND TECHNICAL MEANS OF THE PHYSICAL PROTECTION SYSTEM IN CONDITIONS OF LONG-TERM POWER OUTAGES

Physical security systems in today's conditions play a key role in maintaining nuclear security and ensuring the normal functioning of facilities in the nuclear power industry. Given the possible lack of electrical power caused by missile strikes in wartime, the enemy or criminals can take advantage of the vulnerability of the physical protection system, the means of which will be de-energized, which can lead to unacceptable radiation consequences [1] as a result of successfully executed illegal actions (sabotage, theft, etc.) ). Therefore, in accordance with the legislation, a number of requirements are put forward to the power supplies of the complex of engineering and technical means of the physical security system, the fulfillment of which in the process of designing, construction or operation of the physical security system is aimed at preventing the failure of power supplies or minimizing the probability of failures in the reliable power supply of the equipment of the physical security n system protection An important stage of ensuring the uninterrupted functioning of the physical security system in conditions of long-term emergency power outages is the selection of a generator set. In this work, the object of research is the security of critical infrastructure objects in conditions of long-term power outages, and the subject of research is the power supply system of the complex of engineering and technical means of the physical security system. The paper analyzes the existing regulatory and legal documentation regarding physical security and provides the method of selecting a generator set, as well as the option of integrating the set into the scheme of power supplies of the complex of engineering and technical means. The main method of the process of selecting the specified equipment is the comparison and analysis of the parameters specified by the manufacturer with the parameters and characteristics that will meet the requirements of the current regulatory and legal documentation and the needs of the training center in supplying electricity to this or that equipment. The method presented in the paper is universal in application and can be scaled to other critical infrastructure facilities, where it is necessary to provide power supplies with a power reserve in conditions of long-term emergency shutdowns of industrial power sources.
