Abstract
This paper presents a study of an availability evaluation for I&C(Instrumentation and Control) System which it applied for nuclear power plant. The system availability assessment have been implemented to the reactor protection system by the adoption of Markov process. Results are satisfied to the requirement of EPRI and APR1400. Based on the research of I&C system assessment, it will contribute to improve the availability of system and impact the design concept with new design optimization.
