Development of technical specification surveillance requirements for Sizewell ''B'' power station

  • 1. Nuclear Electric plc, Knutsford, Cheshire (UK)

Description

The paper describes the adaptation of Standard Technical Specifications to the licensing requirements of the United Kingdom for the first PWR to be built by Nuclear Electric plc (formerly a part of Central Electricity Generating Board). The application of probabilistic methods in the design and safety analysis is described, and the decisions to be taken on the scope, structure and interdependence of the technical specifications for Sizewell ''B'' Power Station are assessed.
