Offering a comprehensive assessment of the dynamics driving - and constraining - nuclear power development in Asia, Europe and North America, this book provides a detailed comparative analysis of contemporary issues in the field.
This report provides information on the content and format for decommissioning plans and supporting safety related documents. Its scope includes information that is relevant to all types of nuclear facilities, ranging from nuclear power plants and reprocessing facilities to university laboratories and manufacturing plants. The report will be of interest to decommissioning planning engineers, pr…
This IAEA publication provides guidance on the inclusion of safeguards considerations in nuclear facility design and construction. This first volume introduces the basic principles of safeguards by design and discusses the goals, costs and rewards, and places the information into the context of nuclear facility design and construction. Benefits and opportunities for all stakeholders are emphasi…
Directions for establishing type tests that may be used in qualifying Class 1E electric cables, field splices, and other connections for service in nuclear power generating stations are provided. Though intended primarily for cable for field installation, this guide may also be used for the qualification of internal wiring of manufactured devices. It does not cover cables for service within the…

This standard is about the operational maintenance of nuclear power plants. Published by An American National Standard or ASME in 2017. The topic of discussion is divided into 6 sections, complemented by mandatory appendices and nonmandatory appendices (MM).
The nuclear industry and the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (USNRC) have been working for several years on the development of an adequate process to guide the replacement of aging analog monitoring and control instrumentation in nuclear power plants with modern digital instrumentation without introducing off-setting safety problems. This book identifies criteria for the USNRC's review and a…
Identifies the typical parameters and terms necessary for collecting and exchanging maintainability data. The definitions are valid for corrective maintenance. For preventive maintenance, a similar classification can be drawn up. The general guidelines on the exchange of reliability data for nuclear power plants are given in ISO 6527.
