DESCRIPTION Historical Background The Class 1E power sources provide the electric power for the plant systems that are essential to reactor shutdown, containment isolation, reactor core cooling, containment heat removal or are otherwise essential in …
1
DESCRIPTION Historical Background This issue is documented in NUREG-0371 [1] and addresses the adequacy of safety-related DC power supplies which was questioned by a nuclear consultant in a letter to the ACRS in April 1977 (NUREG-0305, [2] Attachment B). …
1
DESCRIPTION This issue was raised in NUREG-0371 [1] following a series of events at operating plants that involved the offsite power systems. These events indicated that the reliability of the preferred source of emergency power might have been less than …
1
DESCRIPTION The complete loss of AC electrical power to the essential and nonessential switchgear buses in a nuclear power plant is referred to as a "Station Blackout." Because many safety systems required for reactor core decay heat removal are dependent …
1
DESCRIPTION The design criteria and methods for the seismic qualification of mechanical and electrical equipment in nuclear power plants underwent significant changes during the course of the licensing of commercial nuclear power plants. Consequently, it …
1
DESCRIPTION Following a LOCA in an LWR, combustible gases, principally hydrogen, may accumulate inside the primary reactor containment as a result of: (1) metal-water reaction involving the fuel element cladding; (2) the radiolytic decomposition of the …
1
DESCRIPTION Some prototype electrical penetration failures have occurred to date. In addition, failures of low voltage penetration modules have occurred at a licensed facility. It was originally postulated that failures of the low voltage penetration …
