1 Scope
This document specifies the utilization and characteristics of instrumentation used
to detect seismic events at nuclear power plants with water cooled reactors. The document
can also be applied to other nuclear facilities after verifying its applicability.
The following types of electrical systems and equipment are not covered by this document:
seismic instrumentation involved in the implementation of nuclear safety functions
as defined by IEC 61226 , for example automatic shutdown systems;
seismic instrumentation not involved in the implementation of nuclear safety functions
as defined by IEC 61226 but which due, for example, to close proximity to other safety classified systems,
requires hardware qualification to be performed.
Such systems are specified, designed, manufactured, qualified, operated and dismantled
according to the relevant requirements of IEC standards, in particular IEC 61513 and the lower level IEC standards according to the safety class and technologies
used.
Seismic instrumentation used for the implementation of seismic...
