Abstract
A proving ring test method equipped with DCPD was developed and applied to detect the crack initiation time in PWR primary water conditions. The specimens were exposed to the PWR primary water environment during one month. The DCPD signals were very clear but the crack initiation was not detected manly because of the low stress condition. To increase the stress condition, Ni plating will be conducted after the straining the specimens.
