Full Description

Scope

This standard sets forth the minimum acceptable requirements for the performance of reliability analyses when used to address the reliability considerations discussed in the standards listed below for safety-related systems.

Purpose

The purpose of this standard is to provide uniform, minimum acceptable requirements for the performance of reliability analyses for safety-related systems found in nuclear-power generating stations, but not to define the need for an analysis. The need for reliability analysis has been identified in other standards which expand the requirements of regulations (eg, IEEE Std 379-1972 (ANSI N41.2-1972), Guide for the Application of the Single-Failure Criterion to Nuclear Power Generating Station Protection Systems,A? which describes the application of the single-failure criterion). IEEE Std 352-1975, Guide for General Principles of Reliability Analysis of Nuclear Power Generating Station Protection Systems, provides guidance in the application and use of reliability techniques referred to in this standard.

Abstract

New IEEE Standard - Superseded.Uniform minimum acceptable requirements for the performance of reliability analyses for safety-related systems found in nuclear power generating stations are provided. The requirements can be applied during design, fabrication, testing, maintenance, and repair of systems and components in nuclear power plants. The timing of the analysis depends upon the purpose for which it is performed.
