The centralized control is performed through several specialized control rooms: one technical control room for each unit of two blocks; one central control room; one electrical control room for 110, 220 and 400 kV substation; one control room for fuel handling plant; one control room for water chemical treatment installations; one hydrotechnical control room.
The designs for automation and controls have been designed in cooperation with MOTEP Institute (Soviet Union) for the first four units while those for the last units there have been designed by the Romanian design institutes. The equipments of the plant represent the technical level of the time they were designed. The adequate results obtained during operation led to high availability degrees.
