The invention concerns a method which consists in, prior to loading a fuel assembly (3) placing at least in a position adjacent to the position designed for the assembly (3) to be loaded, at least a means for guiding (18) the lower tip (9b) of the fuel assembly, so as to guide the lower tip of the fuel assembly on its four lateral faces, the guide means having a height, above the reactor core (8) support plate, less than 5 % of the core height. Then, it consists in moving the fuel assembly (3) downwards along a vertical axis offset relative to the vertical axis of the position of the fuel assembly in the core (6), so as to move it away from the neighbouring assemblies during the displacement; then resetting the position of the assembly (3) on the vertical axis of its loading position in the core (6) and performing the final lowering phase slowly to ensure that the lower tip (9b) is automatically guided and the assembly (3) is set down on the core (8) support plate, thereby enabling the fuel assembly to be speedily moved towards its loading position. |
