Synergistic Use of IEEE and IEC Nuclear Power Plant Standards

摘要

Many organizations worldwide develop standards that affect nuclear instrumentation and control (I&C). Two of the principal standards organizations are the US IEEE's Nuclear Power Engineering Committee (NPEC), and the IEC Subcommittee on Reactor Instrumentation (SC45A). This paper surveys the contents of the two sets of standards. Opportunities for complementary use of IEEE and IEC standards are discussed.
