Full Description
Establishes the requirements for preservice and inservice
testing and examination of certain components to assess their
operational readiness in light-water reactor power plants. It identifies
the components subject to test or examination, responsibilities,
methods, intervals, parameters to be measured and evaluated, criteria
for evaluating the results, corrective action, personnel qualification,
and record keeping. These requirements apply to: (a) pumps and valves
that are required to perform a specific function in shutting down a
reactor to the safe shutdown condition, in maintaining the safe shutdown
condition, or in mitigating the consequences of an accident; (b)
pressure relief devices that protect systems or portions of systems that
perform one or more of these three functions; and (c) dynamic
restraints (snubbers) used in systems that perform one or more of these
three functions.
