CODAC Plant Control Design Handbook

ITER Plant Control Design Handbook (PCDH) defines standards, specifications and interfaces applicable to ITER plant system instrumentation and control (I&C). These standards are essential for ITER to:

  • Integrate all plant systems I&C into one integrated control system
  • Maintain all plant systems I&C after delivery acceptance
  • Contain cost by economy of scale (spare parts, expertise)

Plant Control Design Handbook - ITER Technical Report

The PCDH version 7 was issued in February 2013 as a final version for use to design and manufacture production I&C systems for ITER. It was republished as an ITER Technical Report in 2020 and updated in 2023.
