Calculations of the response for the most widely used neutron dosimeters at the Russian nuclear power plant (NPP) have been performed. It is shown that in some cases it is necessary to introduce a correction for the measured value of the ambient dose equivalent rate (AEDR). The experimentally tested values of the correction for measuring AEDR in the containment rooms of NPP with VVER-1200 are given.
