Abstract: To provide an electrical penetration capable of being used in nuclear power plants which are designed assuming operation under conditions of the severe accident. An electrical penetration includes: a tubular sleeve member 10; two or more insulating seal members 20A and 20B arranged inside the sleeve member 10 so as to be spaced from each other; wiring members 60, 60 disposed along the longitudinal direction of the sleeve member 10 so as to extend across two insulating seal members of the two or more insulating seal members 20A and 20B; and outer seal members provided inside the sleeve member 10 and at the outermost portions of the two insulating seal members 20A and 20B. The wiring members 60, 60 are each covered with an insulator made of the same material as those of the outer seal members 21A and 21B.

Abstract: This automatic gain control circuit is provided with a variable gain amplifier for amplifying a received signal, has a small circuit size, and makes it possible to reduce the effect of superimposed external noise input within the frequency bandwidth of a received signal. The automatic gain control circuit supplies the output of the variable gain amplifier to an analog/digital converter and comprises: a frequency selection circuit that is connected to the output of the analog/digital converter and that selects a signal within the frequency bandwidth of a received signal, said signal having a narrower bandwidth than the frequency bandwidth; and a control signal generation circuit that generates a control signal for the variable gain amplifier on the basis of the strength of the signal selected by the frequency selection circuit.
