Description

The conception of the deeply echelonized protection of an NPP is analyzed, and the methodological limitations of this conception that is based on the stochastic regularities of a heavy accident and eliminates the possibility to minimize the expenditures on both the safety of an NPP and the optimization of its reliability are shown. A new conception of the maximum safety of an NPP under minimally possible expenditures is grounded, and a new approach to the ensuring of the safety of an NPP is proposed. A method for the normalization of the accident risk index for an NPP by minimizing the expenditures on the safety is given
