PD IEC/TR 62987 discusses nuclear power plants. The information in PD IEC/TR 62987 complements, for nuclear power plant applications, the procedure for Failure Mode and Effects Analysis (FMEA) in IEC 60812.
PD IEC/TR 62987 provides guidance on nuclear-specific issues when applying Failure Mode and Effects Analysis (FMEA) and related methods to instrumentation and control systems important to safety in nuclear power plants.
PD IEC/TR 62987 on nuclear power plants is useful for:
Failure mode and effects analysis (FMEA) is a qualitative method of reliability analysis that may be applied to many different types of systems. It is an inductive method of performing system reliability or safety analysis from a low to a high level. There is a need to provide guidance on nuclear-specific issues, for example, common cause failure and meeting the single failure criteria when applying failure mode and effects analysis (FMEA) and related methods to instrumentation and control systems important to safety in nuclear power plants.
PD IEC/TR 62987 provides you with information, in the context of applications to nuclear power plant instrumentation and control systems important to safety. Some of the aspects discussed are:
