[en] Irradiated fuel rods are transferred under-water from Reactor Building (RB) to Spent Fuel Storage Building (SFSB) for further processing. Fuel transfer buggy is used for transferring irradiated fuel rods from Fuel Discharge Port (FDP) to SFSB. A cutting saw is used for bisecting the fuel assembly under-water. Both the equipments are vital and majority of the components of these are difficult to access. Downtime of these equipments directly affects the reactor operation. Based on the operating experience and feed back, modification and design up-gradation have been done on these equipments resulting in improved performance and availability. This paper describes some of these modification and up-gradation on these equipments. (author)
