IEEE P338 – IEEE Draft Standard for Criteria for the Periodic Surveillance Testing of Nuclear Power Generating Station Safety Systems

Revision Standard – Active – Draft.The standard provides criteria for the performance of periodic surveillance testing of nuclear power generating station safety systems. The scope of periodic surveillance testing consists of functional tests and checks, calibration verification, and time response measurements, as required, to verify that the safety system performs its defined safety function. Post maintenance and post-modification testing are not covered by this document. This standard amplifies the periodic surveillance testing requirements of IEEE NPEC nuclear standards. Some design requirements are also identified in this standard.
